Limit attribute table in Map View to only those features matching the Page Query of a Map Series

In ArcMap, I could use Data Driven Pages to step through features in a layer, and the map would automatically pan/zoom to each feature. I had two layers set up (in addition to my index layer) with page queries--one that matched, and one that didn't match. I could symbolize these two layers differently and create a kind of spotlight effect, where the page-queried feature was brighter and bolder, and the non-page-queried features were faded. In addition to this, the attribute table of the "matched" page queried layer only contained attributes for the matched feature. This made reviewing polygons, feature by feature, a breeze. Now, with Map Series in ArcGIS Pro, the attribute table is not limited to the matched page query features, and the map does not automatically pan/zoom. (I know it does in the Layout View, but I need the ability to zoom in/out and modify features without having to activate the frame and cycling through a bunch of clicks/tools).

So, there's a lot to unpack here, but my main question is: Is there a way to limit the attribute table in a Map View to only those features that match the page query?

I really need to vent.  I can't tell you how irritating this is.  I really want to like ArcGIS Pro, but things like this make it difficult.  You can have a filter by extent button but you can't make a filter by map series button?  Come on!!!
