Some key events are not detected. In particular, the user pressed the letter "i", the "keydown" event was detected but not "keyup". Same thing for n, r and a, but it doesn't really have anything to do with the letter because typing the n again (for instance), seems to work fine (both up/down events detected). This happens within seconds while writing a single sentence. Doing the same with other browsers from the same client machine (eg. Firefox and Chrome) shows no such issues. >> 2) I've tried a keyboard test with Firefox (which works fine), but I don't >>quite understand if the result is "OK".

I guess I got confused and thought there was an echo because the events were detected out of order. I see now on Firefox that the keydown/keyup pairs work out just fine. However, with Edge as noted before there are missing keyup events.
