Steps to reproduce:

Remove the focused input element from the DOM, select an editable element and try to use arrow keys.

See: https://jsfiddle.net/4uxvnjo5/

Attached gif shows the autocomplete of the removed input element.

Actual results:

Autocomplete from the removed input takes control over the arrow keys.

Expected results:

Arrow keys should work only for the currently selected element.

Hi,

I can reproduce this issue on Windows 10 and Mac OS 10.14 using the latest Firefox Nightly 67, Firefox Beta 66 and Firefox 65.0.1

I'm going to set a component in order to involve the development team in reviewing this issue.

Thank you for reporting!
