[Problem/Bug]: WebView2 closing a window is not calling window.onunload

[rajusn273]

What happened?

I am using WebView2 control (latest stable release 1.0.2651.64, WebView2 Runtime 127.0.2651.105) in WPF app.
Within the WebView2 control a html form with javascript is loaded, the form uses window.onunload and some other html forms I use window.onbeforeunload to call unlock methods on C# Host objects.
The issue happens when the WPF window is closed and onunload/onbeforeunload javascript methods are not getting called.

I have attached sample application where i launch Test.html inside WebView2, in this form i have subscribed to load, unload and beforeunload. Only load method gets executed which calls a method from HostObject, but on close of the form beforeunload nor unload are getting called.
