What is the reasoning for this? Are there any issues if it would be allowed to receive the press of key B?
A bad consequence of this restriction is that mousewheel can't be used to scroll pages or containers while dragging something.
I propose to at least allow mousewheel event. But I could also see use cases for other input. The user could grab an item out of the container, use keyboard shortcut to display another container and drop it in that one. Currently something like that would only be possible by catching
dragover
on some icon, just like scrolling is only achieved by dragging item close to the edge of the viewport.P.S. Sorry if this has already been discussed. I couldn't find it in the tracker even though some bug reports refer to the standard - https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=556169
