[FeatureReq - Partner Center] Option to download the zip of "Extension Under Review"
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Whenever we submit any extension to review. If it goes into "review stage" we have no way to check the zip of the submitted extension which is under review. My usecase is, we use Edge APIs to directly upload and publish our extensions. But in some cases we don't keep the last few versions with us and we only keep the last one. In case we submit now another one, that extension would go into draft and we dont have way to check the second last extension which is under review currently.
Describe the solution you'd like This could be solved if we get a download option for the extension which is under review.
Additional context We have been facing this issue because Edge Store takes a lot of time for review always ( 3-7) days unlike Chrome Store ( within 1 hour also sometimes) and sometimes we need to check the currently submitted extension under review.

We have been facing this issue too. below is our sences
- After the extension is released to Partner Center but before it is approved by the Edge team, the latest version needs to be provided to users in order to fix problems urgently. It is necessary to provide an offline package, so that it can be associated with the extension in Partner Center.
- When our extension needs to perform partial verification for a small number of users, it also needs to provide an offline package method, and release it after a small number of users pass the verification
- Some of our users’ network access to microsoft.com is relatively slow. We can download the extension offline package and upload it to our own CDN, and then provide it to users for manual installation
I really hope to add this function. Google’s browser extension supports downloading crx offline package. I hope Edge can also support it. Thank you
