@jeclrsg we should discuss, I don't think we should be back porting anything to the React V9 codebase, given it was a tech preview in 8.10.
If there are fixes needed for the Dojo pages, that is fine?

[GordonSmith]

Sanity checks:

• Did you test this works when switching between V9 and dojo pages?
• Does this code match what we have in the 9.2.x branch now?

[jeclrsg]

I did test that this works as expected when switching versions. But no, it doesn't match what's currently in 9.2. I thought the other PR (#17843) targeting 8.12.x should be merged up into 9.0 and so on. Also, regarding back porting, I believe Stu had pointed out in an ECL Watch meeting that the folks who'd encountered this had only fairly recently moved to 8.10 and they could be there for a while yet.

Any plans to have the changes addressed for future merge on 8.10 release? This will benefit Quod client in Brazil.
