Able to reproduce the issue on reported chrome version 71.0.3578.98 also on latest chrome 73.0.3652.0 using Windows 10.  
 
Same behavior is seen on M60(60.0.3112.113) hence considering it as non-regression and marking it as Untriaged.

Note: Issue not observed on Mac, OviceOver reads the dev element when focusing on it.

Thanks..!
