Good point. We could add Qt accelerators for these (e.g. you could do
alt+f to go to the filter field)? I think actually both Qt
accelerators and tab should be used.

But then how do we go from the outline to the workarea without closing
it? Either we keep ESC for that or we find a new way. For example,
backspace when anywhere except the Filter text area? That is not very
intuitive. Maybe Shift + ESC? Or what about the same short cut that is
used to open the dialog? This would be intuitive but I think tricky to
implement if we want to have a clean way (e.g. no hard coding).
