Chat Textbox Improvements
This mod improves/fixes the chat textbox in the main interface and game lobby. Previous to HoN 0.3, you could press esc while focus was on the textbox to remove focus and allow you to use hotkeys (such as voice chat in the game lobby) easily.
This mod re-adds that functionality by removing focus from the textbox if you press esc while it has no text. If there IS text in it and you press esc, it will clear it without removing focus. You can then press esc again to remove focus. This adds a perfect balance (in my opinion) between easy text chatting and easy voice chatting/hotkey use.
Additionally, this mod makes the interface automatically select the chat textbox whenever you click anywhere in the chat window, to make it very easy to re-select it.
