[0.15.10] Menu access while connecting to server, crash

I am on a slow 1.5/0.25 megabit DSL Internet connection. CenturyLink in a rural area, so what do you expect. :roll:

While attempting to connect to a multiplayer game, the estimated download time is 10 minutes, which is too long for me. I want to abort the download and instead start a new game.

If I press Escape while still connecting, the main menu appears below the download progress bar. From here I can navigate around through any of the menus while it still downloads the map from that server.

From here I can then go to New Game, Generate. It is quite unhappy trying to generate a new world while simultaneously downloading a world.

CRASH!

Please revise the GUI so that while connecting to a server:
  • Pressing Escape or any other keys should not display the main menu while downloading.
  • There are two buttons provided below the connect progress bar: [Abort] and [Quit game]
  • Escape should instead be bound to the [Abort] button.
