Undocumented InfoboxOptions.autoAlignment property in Bing Maps v8?

In the "Reusing an infobox" Bing Maps v8 online demo, I spotted InfoboxOptions.autoAlignment, which seems to automatically reposition Infoboxes so that they stay within the visible area of the map when they're opened for a pushpin that is near the edge. However, this property is not documented on the InfoboxOptions MS Docs page, and it's not in the Microsoft.BingMaps.V8.TypeScript NuGet package v2.0.3, so my TS doesn't compile when I add it.

The only other references I found to it on the web are in three-year-old threads in the old, archived forum. (Thread A, Thread B)

Can we show the v8 control some love and get this property documented and the TS updated? I'd really like to use this option instead of writing my own custom code to reposition the Infobox.

    Hi CRHinners,

    I will ask the folks that know about the control and see.

    Sincerely,
