[Accessibility]: Notebooks conflict caused by arrow key navigation

Audit type

Keyboard navigation

User journey audit issue

Problem description

Search notebooks have a behavior where a notebook can be scrolled by using the up/down arrow keys. This seems to cause confusion with the keyboard navigation, because it also focuses each block.

Expected behavior

I'm not sure there's a clear expectation. On one hand, scrolling a page with the up/down arrow keys is expected behavior. On the other hand, focusing the blocks is unexpected.
