Hardware keyboard up/down keystrokes interpreted as home/end when interacting with a QML TextArea

When using a hardware keyboard connected via USB to an iPad and interacting with a TextArea, Up/Down arrows keystrokes are not interpreted as cursor up and down being interpreted as home/end:

• when pressing up, the cursors goes to the beginning of the line

• when down is pressed, the cursors goes to the end of the line.

I didn't bother uploading an example. In order to reproduce, create a QML TextArea element, run it on a iPad an connect a USB keyboard to the iPad and write some lines of text. Then, try to interact with the up/down arrows to navigate vertically across lines. You will realise that it is impossible.
