Steps to reproduce:

Visit https://www.goblincrafted.com/recommendations/franchise/Indiana_Jones/

Hit Page Down

Actual results:

Because the site sets up multiple scrollbars, nothing happens until users click to set focus.

Expected results:

Either limit scrollbar proliferation, or just allow Page Down.

Posting as an enhancement, because the same problem occurs in other browsers.

Hi MarjaE,

Thanks for your report, I´ll tag this as "NEW" for visibility.

And then there are sites like Tumblr where Page Down scrolls the rest of the page instead, regardless where users click , so there is no way to navigate an overflows element.

And gallica.bnf.fr where it's just broken, period, regardless where you click; they may have a custom scrolling solution which breaks scrolling and page down.
