MDN aren't the authoritative source, but I assume they have close ties with the Chrome developers, so they should be better informed than most.

The definitive source is https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-1.2/#aria-modal, which says "Assistive technologies MAY limit navigation to the modal element's contents." It doesn't even say SHOULD, let alone MUST, so I expect there is little chance that this will be implemented by enough browsers that authors can rely on it.
