Summary Feature Request: Expose Content Blockers in WKWebView

Reported 2018-10-26 07:31:39 PDT
Content Blockers (https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/General/Conceptual/ExtensibilityPG/ContentBlocker.html) allow users to block unwanted content like social widgets, trackers, etc. Currently, this functionality is exposed to SFSafariViewController as well as Safari itself, however not to WKWebView. While developers can in theory reimplement their own content blocking rules (like, for example, in the Brave browser: https://brave.com/features/), the user through their system-level Content Blockers has already expressed their blocking choices, so it would be desirable if they were respected universally.
