RFE: Option to prevent iframes from stealing focus

Reported by khym.cha...@gmail.com, Dec 6 2017 
UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/62.0.3202.94 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
Go to any web page where an iframe ad steals focus from the page.

What is the expected behavior?

What went wrong?
The iframe stealing focus leads to some annoying problems:

* Hitting tab shifts focus to the element after the iframe, rather than the first element in the page.
* Scrolling the page via hitting space or via extensions like Vimium don't work.

Did this work before? No 

Chrome version: 62.0.3202.94  Channel: stable

It happens a lot when at pixiv.net when viewing individual works of art.  However, it's intermittent, apparently depending upon which ads are served.

Adding Kenji for an idea of intervention - this seems working as expected
from the viewpoint of rendering engine.

IMO, it's unlikely to add such option because
 - It's standard-defined behavior
 - It's avoidable by site owner.
 - It's possible to make a Chrome extension to avoid it.
