This is an instance of the general dialogs behavior on New Tab page - refer to bug 1503876. It creates a barrier for sighted keyboard users, thus assigning access-S3 accessibility severity per the Accessibility Triage Guidelines

I'm marking this bug as a duplicate of a new bug that covers all HNT modals that don't capture tab focus.
