Cortana search behavior
Ask Cortan return results in Context i.e. how old is Donald Trump, Cortana responds vocally with "Donald Trump is 73 years old, born Jun 14, 1946 in New York City borough of Queens" and then open the Bing result panel within the Edge browser with text/image return search information.
