User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.2) Gecko/20060601 Firefox/2.0.0.2 (Ubuntu-edgy)
Build Identifier: 1.5.0.10 (20070306)

When you send messages status window with progress bar appears. The keyboard focus is on the cancel button by default and Esc cancels too. It is too easy to cancel even if you do not want it and Thunderbird asks no questions. Confirmation dialogue would be suitable. It is annoying if the message takes dozens of minutes to send.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Pick a big file and send it as attachment. Wait for status window to appear. Press Esc, Spacebar or Enter.
Actual Results:  
"Failed to send message"

Expected Results:  
When the status window appears Cancel must not have keyboard focus.
Confirmation window instead of Cancelling instantly. (At least if the message took several minutes to send)

I mark it as bug, please change to Enh. if needed.
