Problem description:
AssemblyLoadContext's unload method fails (does not garbage collect/unload the assembly) when the assembly has a WPF window. There is a thread about this issue here in the main dotnet runtime GitHub, but they recommended someone create a thread in the WPF GitHub .

I see. Well, I hope this is planning to be fixed, because from what I understand at this point it would be accurate to say that there is physically no way to create GUI plugins that can be unloaded in any .NET UI Framework right now. Correct?
