Description
Older IE based control is used by us with WM_HTML_GETOBJECT function to find object from HWND if needed.
Can this be supported for new control?
e.g. support IAccessible interface and WM_GETOBJECT function and return browser view object via LresultFromObject.

Research direction
Start by reading the issue's references to IAccessible, WM_GETOBJECT, WM_HTML_GETOBJECT, and LresultFromObject, then inspect the WebView2 documentation and Windows accessibility APIs. Done would require a documented and implemented way for the new control to respond to WM_GETOBJECT and return the browser view object, with validation of compatibility behavior.
