The problem comes from using 'cwdaemon' as keyer. If you press ESC
(please do it only once) it sends cwdaemon a stop command. But it takes
some time before cwdaemon reacts. Btw, which version of cwdaemon do you
use. Iirc there was some work to make it react more quickly to a stop
request lately.

Editing the exchnage field is already on the todo list :-).

Same here. I know the bug, but did not find time to fix yet.

Never seen the number of dupes in the scorewindow. Sorry.
