 // CHANGELOG
 // (minor and older changes stripped away, please see git history for details)
 //  2024-XX-XX: Platform: Added support for multiple windows via the ImGuiPlatformIO interface.
+//  2024-10-28: [Docking] Rely on property stored inside HWND to retrieve context/viewport, should facilitate attempt to use this for parallel contexts. (#8069)
 //  2024-09-16: [Docking] Inputs: fixed an issue where a viewport destroyed while clicking would hog mouse tracking and temporary lead to incorrect update of HoveredWindow. (#7971)
 //  2024-07-08: Inputs: Fixed ImGuiMod_Super being mapped to VK_APPS instead of VK_LWIN||VK_RWIN. (#7768)
 //  2023-10-05: Inputs: Added support for extra ImGuiKey values: F13 to F24 function keys, app back/forward keys.
