Describe the changes you are looking for

We're currently building a customer account UI extension for one of our apps. Our app stores prices in the base currency and we wish to use Shopify's currency rate for currency conversions on the UI if a shopper is viewing the store from a different market. However, the new customer account cannot access window.Shopify.currency.rate. This means that we can't find any way to convert currency on the extension.

We've noticed that window.Shopify.currency.rate is available for checkout extensions, though. Will it be made available for new customer account extensions soon?

Thanks for helping us address our questions, it's much appreciated!
