This has always bothered me really, both 'M' for going into Mouselook 
and 'ESC' for leaving it or resetting the camera are not optimal choices 
because whether it does what you want depends on a previous state. And I 
am in the chat editor most of the time, so that always interferes. In 
the beginning I used to tweak it after every new version download, 
usually assigning it to F-keys instead of the gestures I never use. But 
I've become too lazy to bother anymore.

Is someone aware of an existing JIRA to vote for? Couldn't find one 
right now, keywords I can think of yield too many results.
