Description
I want to use the WebView2 Control to display PDF files in a WPF application. (simply read, scroll and select+copy text, nothing else)
With the latest prerelease, I'm able to adleast disable some toolbar icons (disabling the complete toolbar would be much nicer)
But when displaying protected pdfs, I always get an additional toolbar which is telling me that the pdf is protected.
This information is worhless for me, but I can't find a way to disable it.
(and it takes up space that was actually intendet for displaying the pdf content)
how can I get rid of it?

Research direction
Start with the WebView2 PDF viewer toolbar settings and the protected-PDF behavior described in the issue; no repository file, test, or code entry point is named. Check whether the WPF control exposes a setting for hiding this information bar, then document the supported behavior or the limitation and expected product change.
