Great news:
Added -Interactive login option to Connect-PnPOnline which is similar to -UseWebLogin but without the limitations of the latter. The -UseWebLogin is using cookie based authentication towards SharePoint and cannot access Graph tokens. Using -Interactive we use Azure AD Authentication and as a result we are able to acquire Graph tokens.
