Re: Compromise on popup trigger visibility

I like the keyboard option.
so, if the popup obscures the trigger, user hits ESC the popup closes and
user can see the trigger.
is this the only case or are the following allowed also
-- popup stays open until hover is off the content or ESC is hit
-- popup stays open until focus is off trigger/content or ESC is hit
