Other comments

This appears to have worked in older versions of vuetify

For example, this issue has it working but only if the dialog itself is clicked: #13882

Looking at VOverlay code it looks like this is expected behavior:

This piece of code explicitly blocks that kind of behavior. It even intentionally add animation that can be seen in your example.
Documentation for persistent says:
"Clicking outside of the element or pressing esc key will not deactivate it."
Different issue is that keyup and keydown are not passed at all when applied to v-dialog
<v-dialog v-model="dialog" @keyup.enter="dialog = false" max-width="290" >
Without persistent also won't work
while
<v-dialog v-model="dialog" @click="dialog = false" max-width="290" > works
Workaround also does not look very nice plus you need to be really careful to also remove Event Listener when closing modal with buttons (Disagree/Agree)

It even intentionally add animation that can be seen in your example.
Documentation for persistent says:

Clicking outside of the element or pressing esc key will not deactivate it.

That states that it will not deactivate it, not that the keydown events will not be emitted. This is very different than "closing the dialog", I may want to wave an annoying flashy thing at the user when they hit esc because I can, and not close the dialog, for instance.

The animation is expected, the events not being re-emitted is not, that is what this bug report is about.

Upderstand, appologies

looks like I complicated issue even more

I would still add that any keyup and keydown does not work on v-dialog regarless of persistent prop.

All the best, sorry for the confusion!

Bumping this bug up because as it is implemented at the moment we can not use persistent any more and therefore lose the ability do disable clicking outside the dialog with keeping the self-made "close-on-esc" functionality.

Fixed with #18779
