Nice, thanks for adding the change. I'll keep in mind when doing branding that GeneratePackageOnBuild was already set to true from the previous servicing release, so I don't reset it.
Edit: Here's the branding PR. I did not reset that package: #81777

Approved by Tactics for 7.0.4. |
Fixes #79766
Backport of #81050 to release/7.0

Customer Impact
When apps/services bind a configuration to a collection which is created with specific behavior (like storing elements with ignore casing to avoid duplicate items differ only in casing), the configuration binder replaces this created collection with a newly created one which not necessarily have same behavior (ignore casing). This causes the apps ends up with a collection containing a list of unexpected items which causes failures to the apps as the app getting unexpected collection elements.
This is a regression from .NET 6.0.
Testing
Done manual tests with all different types of collections. The changes passed all regression tests. Also, more tests are added for the cases we are fixing.
Risk
Medium, I scoped the changes as much as I could while ensuring I addressed the issues we are trying to fix.
