Is there a way to interact with inventories ala Minecraft?

[Samaya]

I just started playing, and maybe I overlooked something, but the way inventories are handled is annoying me. 

I just want to open my inventory with e, but also close any inventory I am in with e instead of ESC, but I'm not seeing an option to change that. 

Am being dumb or is there no such option to rebind?

I don't think there's an option to change it, outside of possibly writing some sort of macro, which is not my realm of expertise. The reason that Vintage Story's inventory system is set up the way that it is, is that unlike Minecraft, Vintage Story allows you to have multiple inventories open at once--character, backpack/crafting, storage containers, etc, which is very convenient at times but does make closing windows a bit more cumbersome. Minecraft opens both the player inventory and a specific container inventory simultaneously, so it's therefore simple to allow a single key to control entering/exiting the inventory screen, as there's technically only one inventory screen to worry about.

Ah I wasn't aware you could open multiple inventories at the same time. 

Are there any popular mods that maybe help with inventory management?

This is the only one I really see: https://mods.vintagestory.at/show/mod/367

In general, there don't seem to be many mods at all in terms of managing player inventory, but that one should at least help with organizing things.

Thanks I'll try it
