Hello,
How to use the key functionality, say for example I have tabs and I want to keep track of them

Is there a null-safe version for this?

@m-azyoksul Here you go.

Thanks a lot for this. However this is not complete and can cause errors. You should set the descendant of the parent to null on disposing
