Quotation from the specification: KBD: Indicates text to be entered by the user. There is, in my mind, a one-to-one correspondence between userinput and KBD. So when the browser designers chose the rendering KBD, they specifically (albeit possibly sloppily) chose the rendering for exactly "stuff you need to type in". Whatever they chose should be the rendering for userinput.
