Thanks Patrick, I didn't really mean "emulate". Bad choice of words. I meant "has the same effect as". Re: two finger scrub, I've tried this and 2 finger Z-shape, both of which I've seen referred to as 'Escape', but they don't emulate it or even have the same effect.

Not tested, but: to my knowledge though, this does not send/emulate any particular keystroke (i.e. it doesn't "pretend" that ESC was pressed), nor can it be detected via JavaScript.
>> Second, there's the issue of how to navigate between items within the menu. When the menu is open, swipe right and left seem to emulate down arrow by moving focus to the next or previous menu item.
Just picking up on this from Mark's original email, worth noting that it's not emulating down arrow, but rather it's simply moving the virtual cursor forward in the document (so akin to using AT reading keys - it's not emulating any keystroke or anything of that nature)
