@ciampo, while I understand what this does. However, I'm not sure I fully understand why it's needed here 😅 Are there cases when the regular ref isn't set during the render?

I haven't tested this component extensively to see if there's any practical cases, but in theory:
titleRef
would beundefined
during the component's initial rendertitleRef
would update to the correct ref, but that wouldn't cause the component to re-render- if no other external factors caused the component to re-render, the
Popover
component would not receive an updatedanchor
For this specific component, it would be entirely possible that the component re-renders multiple times for different reasons, but I still believe that this code change is a good idea:
- it makes the component more resilient to future changes
- it shows the correct pattern around making sure the
anchor
value is never stale, in case any other developer took it as an example

Thanks, @ciampo.
I think that's a good argument, and we can justify an extra render.
