Arhhh... That would explain it. I never even considered this.

http://www.quirksmode.org/js/popup.html has a link to

http://www.quirksmode.org/js/popupex.html called "Open popup"

Activate this link and click the "Close" link:
javascript:window.close()

Now the keyboard is dead in this Conkeror window.

This doesn't seem to work unless you go to the second page via the
first page.
