Deprecate Switch.System.Windows.Forms.AllowUpdateChildControlIndexForTabControls quirk
Version introduced
3.0 Preview9
Old behavior
TabControl for re-orders the its ControlCollection when a tab is selected.
In some special cases such behavior was undesired and a Switch.System.Windows.Forms.AllowUpdateChildControlIndexForTabControls switch was introduced in .NET Framework 4.6 to allow skipping the re-order.
New behavior
The switch is deprecated, and no alternative functionality is available.
Reason for change
.NET Core 3.0 is a new moderm development platform, and it brings significantly simpler servicing scenarios, thus allowing for removal of quirks targeting specific legacy use cases.
Recommended action
Remove the switch.
Update the code that was dependent on the switch to handle re-orders of ControlCollection when a tab is selected.
