Allow domain-based exclusion for "Always download PDF files" behaviour
In our Enterprise, having the "Always download PDF files" setting as a simple toggle is overly restrictive. I would like the Edge product team to consider implementing a domain-based exclusions list ...

Microsoftjoshnystrom Hello! Thanks for sending your feedback! I can see we have it on our backlog to update the AlwaysOpenPdfExternally policy to allow an exception list but there is no ETA for when this will be available.
Currently, there is limited support for XFA in Microsoft Edge via the PDFXFAEnabled policy (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-policies#pdfxfaenabled) Maybe this is something you can test for your scenario.

I 2nd this request. We have some websites that expect and require Edge to open the PDF natively. However, we would like it to open the system PDF viewer in all other cases.
What is the status of this request?
