[qutebrowser] How to unfocus a text input field?

Dear Qutebrowser,

How can we unfocus a text input field so we can continue scrolling a page with j and k? I could not find the answer.

For example: Open qute://settings/ and enter a text field (make as if you wanted to change auto_save.interval to another value). After checking you can insert text in that field, try to leave it with Esc.

  *   Expected behavior: Insert mode was terminated and you can use j and k keys to scroll down and up.

  *   Actual behavior: Insert mode was terminated but the text input cursor is still blinking in the field and you cannot use j and k keys to scroll.

Am I missing something obvious there? I am able to get the expected behavior if I click an empty area with the mouse, but in a Qutebrowser context it goes without saying that I prefer not to use the mouse.

Yours faithfully,
Paulo
