Focus is not returned to a window on esc

[Dmitry Staver]

Hi! I'm new to alfred and I'm amazed by the app!
But there's a small issue I can't handle on my own. So if I close alfred by pressing esc key, the focus won't return to the previous window. Is there anything I can do about it?

So I found out that the issue disappears if I set compatibility mode in the settings.

Are there any downsides of using it? Based of its description I'd say that the option should act absolutely reverse
upd: actually now I can see that the focus is not lost in the standard mode, I can see it by the title bar of Safari for example, but it would react to any key press with the system error sound until I click safari again. In compatibility mode a window loses focus but it's correctly returned to it on esc.
