There is some special logic in LzModeManager#172 to keep the in-canvas debug console from fielding mouse events. Maybe there needs to be some similar logic in the keyboard? I expect that as soon as you print a debug message it creates a link, which depending on your browser preferences, becomes something the browser thinks you might want to tab to (in Safari, that's off by default, but you can enable it if you like keyboard navigation).
