Agent Pitcher, we meet again! 🕵️‍♂️ // @LottePitcher @greystate

Looking at how I've done this elsewhere in Contentment, here's an example:
https://github.com/leekelleher/umbraco-contentment/blob/4.2.0/src/Umbraco.Community.Contentment/DataEditors/SocialLinks/SocialLinksConfigurationEditor.cs#L103

Would this not work for you? 🤔
View = _ioHelper.ResolveRelativeOrVirtualUrl("~/umbraco/views/propertyeditors/entitypicker/entitypicker.html"),

Previously, (e.g. v8) you could omit the ~/umbraco/ bit, as that was already in the context the "umbraco" directory, but in this .NET Core world, the paths are somewhat different. I'm not yet sure what the context of the "root" directory is, e.g. Content directory or the Web (wwwroot) directory. 🤷 That's why I use the ResolveRelativeOrVirtualUrl extension method to sort it out for me. 😬

Thanks @leekelleher as of course I just needed the umbraco/ in the view path. Good job @greystate isn't paying me for this, otherwise that might have been embarrassing 😆

I still get an error but I now see that's from the Config dictionary field property (as lifted from v8), so I can make progress with investigating that now. I think I was thinking this might be a problem caused by RCLs or something... But clearly not! 🙏
