Color/Camera rotation keys get triggered in terminal text fields

Repro steps:

1) Make sure you have the keys for "Next color/camera" and "Previous color/camera" bound to characters (they default to '[' and ']', respectively, but this works for any characters, like 'e' and 'o' or ',' and '.')

2) Access the terminal on a grid

3) Pick any terminal block and click its name (I think this will also work with other text fields like the HUD field for beacons/antennae)

4) Press the key for "Previous color/camera"

Expected result: that character is added to the text field

Actual result: you are suddenly looking at the inventory tab

5) Repeat steps 2,3. This time, press the key for "Next color/camera"

Expected result: that character is added to the text field

Actual result: you are suddenly looking at the production tab


Based on the fact that the Previous key moves you one tab to the left and the Next key moves you one tab to the right, I'm guessing someone tried to add Previous Tab, Next Tab to the functionality and forgot to check whether the user was using that key for text entry.

The current work-around is to reassign those functions to keys with no characters (I used R-Shift and R-Ctrl)
