While watching demos (at least from the editor; haven't checked in-game) pressing Shift or Ctrl or right-clicking exits the demo. Why? If the player actually wants to exit the demo, the much more intuitive Esc does this. Meanwhile it would be awesome to be able to ctrl-rightclick to get room coordinates from a demo. The most obvious example is when you're watching what people do in rooms to decide on good locations for checkpoints.

Skells edit: duplicate of this.

On a side note, I can exit the demo with every button of my keyboard aside the space bar (both in-game and in the editor). That's pretty boring though I'm not sure if it's just my problem.

I agree with this request wholeheartedly. Even putting the right-click showing coordinates aside, there have been many times where I've accidentally clicked on something during a demo, closing it and making me start over from the beginning.

It seems like that's the case for most of the keys I've used before, but the arrow keys should allow you to advance or undo the demo move by move.
