Description
When using CTRL+F to show the page search box, the search box isn't bound to the corresponding WebView2. When I move the window of my application, the search box will remain at the same position on the screen:
Before moving:
After moving:
Additionally, if I place the WebView2 in a TabControl, the search box will still be visible, even if the tab with that WebView2 is hidden.
Version
SDK: v1.0.674-prerelease
Runtime: edge canary 88.0.690.0
Framework: WPF
OS: Win10

Research direction
Start with the WPF repro using a TabControl containing two WebView2 instances, then run the CTRL+F, window-move, and tab-switch steps. Verify that the search box follows its WebView2 and is hidden when that tab is not selected; compare behavior with the stated SDK and runtime versions.
