We ran into an issue where we cannot select one iframe due to strict cross site policy.

I found this article: [https://appium.io/docs/en/advanced-concepts/cross-domain-iframes/](https://appium.io/docs/en/advanced-concepts/cross-domain-iframes/) , however we realized that document.domain will be deprecated very soon, so we cannot use this workaround:

- [https://developer.chrome.com/blog/immutable-document-domain/](https://developer.chrome.com/blog/immutable-document-domain/)
- [https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/edge-learnmore-origin-keyed-agent-cluster](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/edge-learnmore-origin-keyed-agent-cluster)

We didn’t have any problems with Android / Chrome, desktop browsers (including Safari), also work fine, this issue is affecting iOS Safari only.  
Is this a new feature that could be implemented in Appium?
