The new HTML inert attribute is a native solution to the very manual focus trapping we employ today. We should explore whether we can drop the entire focus trap subpackage in favor of people directly using inert. It will be some time until browsers fully support this, but it's on track for all of Chromium/Firefox/Safari.
