android support for chrome_url_overrides

[conceptualspace]

per the edge extension documentation here, chrome_url_overrides is a supported manifest key, but the properties for the key seem to be ignored in edge on android.

for example, the following code has no effect:

"chrome_url_overrides" : {
  "newtab": "my-new-tab.html"
}

are there plans to fully support url_overrides in edge on android?

(and if there is a better place to report this issue please let me know). thanks

this manifest key is meant to support extensions defining a new tab page. i author an extension that uses this: yet another speed dial but there are many other examples as well, ex minimal new tab

this issue was open for 4 months and closed after a week for me to reply? can we re-open this rather than submit a new issue @venkatasai5171? thank you
