No, this isn't a problem. The experience is pretty much the same for sighted
and blind people. When you hit the browser chrome (either visually or
aurally), you know you've reached the bottom of the page. No need for any
specific warnings or authoring practices.

Subject: [WebAIM] End of page notification
Is it necessary to have some type of notification that a screen reader has
reached the end of a page? I've noticed using NVDA that it continues into
the browser status bar and on. Is this a problem? If so, how do you notify
the reader that it has reached the page end? Google not much help on this.
