How can I *exit* multi-cursor mode in VSCode from the keyboard?

This is the default setting, enabling Shiftescape to exit multi-cursor mode:

{ "key": "shift+escape",          "command": "removeSecondaryCursors",
                                     "when": "editorHasMultipleSelections && textInputFocus" },

So I’ve added the following to my own configuration, to enable the much more intuitive escape to exit multi-cursor mode:

{ 
  "key": "escape",      
  "command": "removeSecondaryCursors",
  "when": "editorHasMultipleSelections && textInputFocus" 
},
