ShortcutRegistration throws NPE

[simasch]

Description of the bug

I see the exception below in the logs.
I can't reproduce it but I think this should be caught by the framework because there is no code of mine involved.

java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "com.vaadin.flow.component.Component.isVisible()" because "component" is null

Expected behavior

No NPE should be thrown.

Minimal reproducible example

Unfortunately I cannot reproduce it.

Versions

• Vaadin / Flow version: 24.4.8
• Java version: 21

Speculation on how to reproduce: this might be a timing issue with a component becoming invisible concurrently with a user triggering a keyboard event related to the same component.

But how can the lifecycle owner become null?
