Configuration Profile to Control "Universal Control"?

I have to imagine this is coming, or maybe I missed something, but I cannot find a way in JAMF Pro 10.36.1 , to stop a user from connecting an iPad via Universal Control to their computer without restricting iCloud accounts. Does anyone has anyone have any knowledge on how to prevent this?

I thought that disabling Handoff would prevent that. But, i just tested. Handoff is disabled via a Restriction profile on macOS. I went to enable Universal Control, it prompted me to enable Handoff. I accepted (even though I am restricted) and it enabled UC. Confirmed UC works, but not sure the status of Handoff. Is it enabled or not?

I'm setting up a lab that will be using a shared Apple ID to use universal control to share the keyboard and mouse between both iPad and MacBook. Is there a way to setup a policy to add the apple ID to both to automate this?

Just found it in the restrictions section
