As always, great to hear of your progress and plans.
I have to say, however, that I am disappointed to not see an issue on your list: Edge support for the system back button when using Windows 10 in tablet mode.
Tapping the system back button should navigate backwards in the browser's page history stack; instead, it kicks you from the application altogether, giving focus to the previous app. Needless to say, this is very jarring. On Surface devices, this presents a significant usability issue when trying to use touch.
I had assumed that this would just be fixed as a matter of course, as it violates a rather specific Windows user interface convention. But it's been 18 months... If you have no plans to address this, maybe you should tell the Windows team to kill tablet mode altogether (and then we can all go buy iPads instead).
Thanks for listening.
garyvoth MissyQ I also share the frustration with this as well. The lack of support to System Back Button of new Microsoft Edge is not just jarring, but often breaks the flow. I always have keep in mind that the system back button when using Edge is useless or else I exit from the app and go back to previous app if not the Start screen.
Not sure why there is no development for this, this should have been supported within 12 months considering this is an OS features related to basic system navigation.
Sadly as I understand, Tablet Mode in Windows 10 is already been abandoned, which may be the reason why this is ignored? T_T
I hope we see it gets supported.
