Should these be public API with availability annotations? I don’t understand why they are still internal.

Good question!

These methods are specifically for editing shortcuts / menu items through the UIKit protocol  `UIResponderStandardEditActions`. They are currently in a private UIKit header, and are declared here for use in WebKit. Once they are moved to a public header, we will no longer declare them here.

Note that `WKWebView` does not publicly conform to `UIResponderStandardEditActions` at this time. This is a historical artifact, and there's not a good reason for keeping it that away. I've filed https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=239349 to make conformance to UIKit's protocol public.

The actual functionality of these methods (being able to find/replace) will be API through `findInteraction`. This is independent of public conformance to `UIResponderStandardEditActions`, which is specifically for editing shortcuts / menu items.
