Security researcher Mario Heiderich reported it was

detect key events through script and most users have scripting enabled this
does not present a risk for most users. In contexts where the user knows
scripting is disabled (reading mail, for example, or NoScript users) this
could allow a malicious web page to fool a user into interacting with
a prompt thinking it came from the browser or mail program.");
