3253	Quick view blocks some characters from typing to the command line	egmont	andrew_b	"Choose ""Quick view"" in one of the panels, and press Tab to make it focused.

Some keys are handled by the viewer, while some other keys (including Enter) are passed to the command line.

This is very dangerous since you can easily type and execute a harmful command.

E.g. type
{{{
ls > desktop.txt
}}}
and then press Enter.

The command executed will be
{{{
s>stop.txt
}}}
wiping out your ""stop.txt"" file.

Either all characters, enter, backspace, and perhaps also left-right arrows should be passed to the command line (but that would limit the quick viewer's usability), or none (so you'd have to press Tab to go back to the file listing panel to type your command, I guess I'd vote for this).
