Are there any browsers where Flash passes WCAG 2.1.2, avoiding
the keyboard trap? In order to control a Flash object via the
keyboard, unless controlled are embedded via JavaScript or some
other method (at which point Flash is more of a media player than
anything else), you do need first to get the keyboard into the
Flash object. As far as I know, there are no browsers  which
allow keyboard escape from Flash.
