WebKit interop with AppIntents
Is there any new functionality in WebKit for bridging WebViews with the AppIntents framework? For example, is there a simple way to create an IndexedEntity whose content is provided by a WKWebView? Also, if I use appEntityIdentifer in a View that contains a WKWebView, will Siri see the web view’s content?

AppSchema in App Extension best practices
It’s often desirable to implement AppIntents in an app extension, but under AppSchema this is more challenging because “on screen awareness” binds views to app entities. This creates a need to synchronize AppEntity data across the boundary between the main app and the app extension. What are the best practices for managing the required bidirectional data exchange? Are there good sample applications that illustrate how to do this cleanly?

Async AppEntity creation
For an AppIntent that creates an AppEntity via a long-running async task, does it make sense for the intent’s “perform” method to return a placeholder AppEntity and update it later via a donation, or is it best to make “perform” async and return only once the entity is completely resolved?

Migrating legacy intents to AppSchema
Any guidance for migrating legacy AppIntents that are nearly identical in functionality to AppSchema app intents? I want to avoid duplicate intents (old vs new) showing up in Shortcuts.
