Microsoft has released a new update (http://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Discussions/Dev-channel-update-to-78-0-268-1-is-live/m-p/847300) (Build 78.0.268.1) to the Microsoft Edge Developer channel.

The update has a small changelog, with likely the most significant feature small improvements to Collections.

The main few features according to Microsoft include:

   ■ Added new logging features to feedback submission. If you click the diagnostic data link on the
      feedback submission popup, you now have the option to attach additional files like screenshots
      you’ve taken, as well as reproduce the problem to provide more robust logging.

   ■ Added the ability for Collections items to be reordered with the keyboard.

   ■ Added a management policy to allow history syncing for work or school accounts.

Improved stability:

   ■ Fixed an issue where favorites weren’t syncing.

   ■ Fixed an issue where dragging and dropping items on certain internal pages like Favorites sometimes
      causes the item to disappear.

   ■ Fixed an issue where exporting a Collection to Word sometimes crashes the browser.

   ■ Improved reliability when signed into the browser with a work or school account.

   ■ Improved the reliability of starting Application Guard sessions.

Improved behavior:

   ■ Fixed an issue where certain context menu commands for tabs like “Reopen closed tab” went
      missing.

   ■ Fixed an issue where webpages installed as apps don’t launch.

   ■ Fixed an issue where attempting to open a PDF in an Application Guard window will fail if there are
      no other Edge windows open.

   ■ Fixed an issue where the browser’s profile image sometimes isn’t updated if it’s changed in the
      backing account.

   ■ Fixed an issue where tabs with the Find on Page popup open sometimes have the popup closed when
      they’re moved to different windows.

   ■ Fixed an issue where opening an app from the Apps page closes the apps page.

   ■ Fixed an issue where the Read Aloud bar sometimes appears transparent.

   ■ Fixed an issue where attempting to open multiple Collections items in a new window opened each
      item in a separate window.

   ■ Fixed an issue where the context menu inside a Collection isn’t dismissed when a new context menu
      is brought up outside of Collections.
