Possibly related to bug 1553852.

I tested this with Firefox 72.0.2 and 74.0 on Windows and Home/End keys work fine there, so this is a Mac-specific issue.

I haven't been able to check on Linux.

this is a Mac-specific issue.

It doesn't work not only in contenteditable in shadow root, the it dones't work in light dom and browser UI (e.g. URL bar, search bar ..), either.
