It would be nice to bring over the API from the dom feature. This suggestion would add the key, but it would still need to be dropped from the other feature. (Run npm run undist -- features/dom.yml first, to make that list editable.)
(If this is too much hassle, let me know and I can open a follow up PR.)

The uncertainty in the data here is a little bit annoying, so I sent mdn/browser-compat-data#30915 upstream to resolve it. It's not a blocker, though.
