I am using GNOME Shell 42.3.1 Wayland session, but I think this should happen on all Wayland compositors.

Step 0: Use a Wayland session, and start Firefox with MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::Widget: Gtk' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.
Same here on the wlroots-based Wayfire compositor. Also, holding down Alt or Control keys do not continuously generate events. Google Chrome will fire these repeat events.
Checked with https://w3c.github.io/uievents/tools/key-event-viewer.html.
