I am trying to implement login with Facebook. During the process, Facebook needs to open a new window and then to do the redirect. On Android native you would set supportMultipleWindows to true on the WebView and you would catch the onCreateWindow() callback and open the url in a new WebView.

I tried setting supportMultipleWindows: true on the WebViewScaffold but then pressing the Login Facebook button does not do anything.

The documentation on Android WebView says that if you set supportMultipleWindows: true you NEED to override onCreateWindow(). Is this possible with your plugin? Am I missing something obvious? Why would you have the supportMultipleWindows property on the WebViewScaffold but not support for the corresponding onCreateWindow()?

Any help is greatly appreciated because I am stuck.
