fwv.WebView currently has await webview.get_user_agent() for reading the value, but it does not expose a user_agent property or set_user_agent() method. The Python control and its Flutter implementation both show that distinction. To send a custom User-Agent header from the embedded WebView, support would need to be added to the Flet WebView control and passed through to its native controller. Setting a header in a separate Python HTTP request would not change the embedded WebView's requests.
