SCI: Phantasmagoria: ESC key (multi)clicks in final sequence

Description
Hi, another speedrunners issue, but it might just have a bit of QoL for regular players.
Phantasmagoria 1, English, GOG, Patch 1.1
ScummVM 2.8.0git7216....
Windows 11, 64 bit 23H2, build 22631.3007
In the final chase, starting from when Adrienne sits on her throne, pressing the "Esc" key both skips a cutscene and performs a mouse-click. It doesn't do that anywhere else in the game, not in Ch7 or other chapters.
It has happened to other players and scummvm versions as well (in fact, keeps happening constantly and kills our runs :) ).
Steps to reproduce:
Start new game, Chapter 7, go down the stairs, enter Dom's dark room, click the drain cleaner and the book. Then you're in the seat.
Click ESC to skip the cutscene. Try to interact with anything using either ESC or clicking, does the same.
Sometimes I *think* it clicks multiple times, leading to an immediate game over. I would assume that regular players too would at some point resort to skipping the final cutscenes they've seen over and over, and might encounter this behaviour as well. Is that something we could look into maybe?

Is a 2.9.0 release imminent? I haven't heard about this on https://lists.scummvm.org/pipermail/scummvm-devel/
I have returned with more information, that makes it easier to replicate and demonstrate the multi-click issue.

(The first time you might enter the theatre at a weird spot, in that case just get captured.) You will now be on the throne.
