--- Comment #2 from James Craig <jcraig@apple.com> ---
That sounds like a hack to me, but either way, your use case can still be
achieved by setting the input's opacity to 0 or positioning it offscreen.
However, hidden (and display:none) elements are not rendered in any modality
and should therefore not be the document.activeElement or receive keyboard
events.
