                    navigations
           Product: WebKit

Simple fragment demo page

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open focus-restoration.html
2. TAB to the "Section 3" link in the table of contents and press ENTER. Firefox navigates to the #sec3 fragment (added to history stack, page scrolls, sequential focus navigation starting point is at <h2 id="sec3">)
3. Go back with ALT/CMD + RIGHT_ARROW

Actual results:
Focus and sequential focus navigation starting point remains where it was after step (2).

Expected results:
As a user, I'd expect focus to be restored to <a href="#sec3">Section 3</a> so I could continue to navigate the table of contents with my keyboard. The spec (https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/browsing-the-web.html#scroll-to-fragid) suggests that focus should move to <body> and sequential focus navigation starting point should be reset to the top of the document.
