Use newer WebView2 version with SDK

[kegesch]

We are developing an App with .NET MAUI which latest version uses the WindowsAppSDK 1.2.221116.1. It seems that WindowsAppSDK bundles WebView2 instead of referencing the nuget version.
Our App needs to access the handler CoreWebView2.CoreWebView2ServerCertificateErrorDetected which is available since WebView2 version 1.0.1245.22. However the latest WindowsAppSDK's version of WebView2 does not contain that handler. It is unclear which version WebView2 is exactly used and why it is apparently such an old version.

Is there a way to use a newer WebView2 version?

I also need this. Anyone have a workaround?

I think you're ultimately going to run into this:
microsoft/microsoft-ui-xaml#5689

Looks like WindowsAppSDK doesn't declare WebView2 as a package dependency, in bundles it directly into the WASDK package. So trying to use two versions SxS is neigh impossible. I'd recommend following/bumping that thread for upddates.
