Zoom map view to extent of a layout view's map frame

[TI]

As per this KoryKramer post, https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-ideas/arcgis-pro-linking-map-view-to-layout-view/idc-p/1207...

There is often a need to have a map view zoomed to the same extent of a map frame in a layout view.  Recently ArcGIS Pro implemented a feature to zoom a layout view's map frame to the extent of either the last active map or to a selected map.  But it would be useful to have a similar feature that also does it the other way around.

This feature should be available in a map view, and also in an activated map frame (although in the latter case, it should not include the current map frame in the list of map frames to use as the source extent to zoom to).

Yes, I would love this feature. In ArcMap it was taken for granted that you saw the same data view extent as the layout view extent. This was useful! Now I have to manually zoom around in the map to find where I was in my layout.

Another way to implement this, instead of a separate feature, would be to simply extend the existing (zoom map frame to existing map view extent) feature to include both all map frames AND all map views as extent sources, PLUS to make the feature available when using a map view AND when viewing a layout.  This would mean that you could also zoom one map view to the extent of another map view, or zoom one map frame to the extent of another map frame.  Ie, cater for all permutations.
