Description
What happened?
When running WebView2CompositionControl if a user right-clicks to open a context menu, it will persist if the user clicks and drags the parent window. Stepping through the code WebView2CompositionControl_LocationChanged appears to be fired, but the location changing isn't resulting in the context menu closing as it does in Edge and other browsers.
Importance
Moderate. My app's user experience is affected, but still usable.

Research direction
Start with the WebView2WpfCompositionControl project under WebView2Samples and inspect WebView2CompositionControl_LocationChanged while reproducing the issue by dragging MainWindow with the context menu open. Done means the context menu closes when the parent window moves, matching the behavior in Edge.
