GuiInputCtrl

I'm trying to use the GuiInputCtrl to intercept the escape key in order to close a specific open GUI.
When I put the control down, the editor freezes. I've noticed that this problem has been described before but I could not find any resolutions? Is this still an issue?
Is this the control I should use to intercept the escape key for the GUI or is there another approach?
Cheers,
Bryan

That is what I actually ended up doing. Just before the GUI is shown, I bind the escape key to do just as you illustrated above. I was trying to get a better grasp of the GUI components, and thus, my implementation idea.

moveMap.bindCmd(keyboard, "escape", "closeMyGUI();", "Closes a specific open GUI");
I've not played around with guiInputCtrls so I don't know why it would cause the editor to crash but I think the above should work as long as you can close the gui in a normal function.
