When will history and tab sync be available for Edge Stable on Windows? It's available on macOS and iOS, but not Windows?

Would be nice to adjust icon colors if "Force Dark Mode for Web Contents" flag is used - icons/pictogramms are invisible in Settings and PDFViewer

Any idea on how to name a window in MacOS? It used to be an option under the "Window" pulldown, but since 89.0.767.0 last week the "Name Window" option is gone. I've tried looking for it in different places like right clicking the title bar, going through options, the menus, the 3 dots menu but I can't find it anywhere. Is this no longer an option?
I swear it was there before 89.0.767.0 under the "Window" menu bar - I know I've used it before because I have some windows which still have custom names - but can no longer find it!
I did submit feedback last week about this issue.

A couple more keyboard shortcuts for collections would be awesome. While the whole concept of collections is a huge differentiator from the competition and is amazing, the clickfest is highly distracting.
KB shortcuts for "Add mouseover/selection/page to collections" and collections quick search would be much appreciated.

@josh_bodner I had reported earlier about Edge crashing during Windows shutdown due to which it showed "Restore pages" dialogue box at its next first launch. It has started happening again since the update before this one.

This article makes it sound like History Sync should be available for everyone in Beta, Dev and Canary, is that correct?
None of my Windows systems with Beta seem to be able to enable History Sync still :(
Also curious if there are any updates on the painful performance for the History and Favorites menus?
History has gotten even worse if anything. 3-4 seconds just to draw the menu on a Core i7 system with 100 meg fiber internet. Painful :( This can't be the final design can it?

@josh_bodner Profile Sync is available on Apple Silicon but still not Linux? Why?

The add profile button is cut in French and probably for other languages.
