<pre>Summary:
There are situations when applications do not want Universal Links to be handled by the System, but prefer the link to be opened in the WKWebView itself. For example, when using a WKWebView in a "private browsing" mode as specified by [WKWebsiteDataStore nonPersistentDataStore], the hosting WKWebView application should be able to prevent opening the Universal Link from opening the native application.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install and log into the LinkedIn app
2. Create WKWebView with [WKWebsiteDataStore nonPersistentDataStore]
3. Navigate to search engine and search for a LinkedIn user's profile
4. Click on the user's profile
Expected Results:
Application should be able to disable the system opening the LinkedIn app.
Actual Results:
LinkedIn app is launched, user unexpectedly looses private context.
Version:
iOS 9.3.2 (13F69)
