Yeah, there should at least be a toggle to hide the current conversation and deal with it.

For future note, changing to another character (F1 - F4) keeps the original in conversation and allows you to do what you need. Switching back to the character in conversation puts you back where the conversation is. You will notice speech bubbles over the characters in conversation and IIRC next to the character portrait.
