Android Apps portrait and landscape option

Reported by nflud...@gmail.com, Feb 3 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; CrOS aarch64 9000.82.0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/56.0.2924.87 Safari/537.36
Platform: 9000.82.0 (Official Build) beta-channel elm

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Happens in all Android Apps
2. 
3. 

What is the expected behavior?
The Android App windows used to contain an option to switch between portrait and landscape in the UI.

What went wrong?
Option to switch Android apps between portrait and landscape is now missing.

in the attached screenshot for the Android Google docs app you can see the option is missing.

Did this work before? Yes 56.0.2924.67 (Platform version: 9000.66.0)

Chrome version: 56.0.2924.87  Channel: beta
OS Version: 9000.82.0
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 24.0 r0

 
Status: WontFix (was: Unconfirmed)
Some apps targeting old builds of Android don't support changing the orientation. This will be fixed as apps update and as part of a larger effort we have for better window management on Android apps.

Thanks for the explanation, when you mention "better window management" is this potentially Android 7 ARC which would allow app resizing?
