(repeating what was mentioned on the live stream here) We're working through understanding what supporting WSL looks like now with the WSL team.

As Canonical we would prefer to have WSL as a subset of a Windows host - with Endpoint Manager helping with all the provisioning and compliance activities. The WSL instance does not exist in isolation and it is important to recognize the relationship with the underlying host.
