Report Taskbar icon location when moving using alt+shift+arrows

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

It is possible to re-organise taskbar icons in Windows 11:

  1. Press Windows+t to move focus to the taskbar
  2. Use the arrow keys to select the icon to move
  3. Press alt+shift+arrow to move the icon in the desired direction.
  4. Use the arrow keys to confirm current location of icon.

The issue is that at step 3, the icon moves in the desired direction, but nothing is reported by NVDA.

Describe the solution you'd like

NVDA should report the new location on the taskbar at step 3 (when alt+shift+left or right arrow is pressed).

Describe alternatives you've considered

Additional context

Using NVDA 2022.3beta1 on Windows 11 (64-bit) Version: 21H2 (2009), Build: 22000.795

Note that Narrator does not report anything during this operation either, so it is possible the needed information is not being exposed (I will confirm with Microsoft, but at least for now this is a place to record any knowledge on this issue).
