One issue I always run into with browser-based terminal emulators or remote desktop clients is that common keyboard shortcuts like Ctrl-W might be used by the browser instead. Accidentally closing your browser tab and thus losing all your state when you just wanted to remove the previous word is quite annoying. It could be nice if a web app was able "capture" the keyboard somehow so that the browser doesn't react to any of its normal shortcuts, which is also commonly done in VM software and remote desktop apps, or I guess similar to input mode in Vim. An open issue here[1] mentions that PWAs can actually define shortcuts that override browser ones which could be a solution.
