Is there a way to Navigate to a FlyoutItem within AppShell

[DP-Technology-LLC]

For this we will write this in the context of Android (ie: "tabs").

In AppShell if you create:

<FlyoutItem Route="Parent1" Title="Parent 1">
    <ShellContent
        Route="Child1A"
        Title="Child 1A"
        ContentTemplate="{DataTemplate views:Child1A}" />
    <ShellContent
        Route="Child1B"
        Title="Child 1B"
        ContentTemplate="{DataTemplate views:Child1B}" />
</FlyoutItem>
<FlyoutItem Route="Parent2" Title="Parent 2">
    <ShellContent
        Route="Child2A"
        Title="Child 2A"
        ContentTemplate="{DataTemplate views:Child2A}" />
    <ShellContent
        Route="Child2B"
        Title="Child 2B"
        ContentTemplate="{DataTemplate views:Child2B}" />
    <ShellContent
        Route="Child2C"
        Title="Child 2C"
        ContentTemplate="{DataTemplate views:Child2C}" />
</FlyoutItem>

When you tap on Parent2, you see 3 tabs (Child 2A, Child 2B and Child 2C) which you can tap on. If you tap on Child 2B, then in the Flyout Menu you tap on Parent1, then in the Flyout Menu you tap on Parent2 again, .Net MAUI remembers you were on Child 2B and that is what you see.

We would like to reproduce this behavior using Shell.Current.GoToAsync. Everything is so close to good if we use:

await Shell.Current.GoToAsync($"//Parent2");

However if we have the above code in Child1A, there is no Back Navigation Arrow that will navigate back to Child1A from Parent2.

The closest thing we could come up with is:

Routing.RegisterRoute($"Child1A/Child2A", typeof(Child2A));
...
await Shell.Current.GoToAsync($"//Child1A/Child2A");

However you don't get the Child2A, Child2B and Child3B tabs, you still have the Child1A and Child1B tabs on your screen. Child1A tab is still selected but you now see the Child2A view. Clicking on the Back Navigation Arrow shows the Child1A view again.

Is what we are asking possible?
