Is there a way to use read and root query options together?

[mattwilson1024]

When I want to make assertions about values being passed down to a child component's inputs, I use the read option to grab a reference to the component instance, like this:

spectator.query(`app-example`, { read: ExampleComponent });

I'm struggling to test a component that uses NgbModal, because it inserts the content dynamically to the end of the DOM (rather than the content being a child of the template for the component under test). In order to be able to reference that node "globally" I have found that I can pass the root option to query, like this:

spectator.query(`app-example`, { root: true })

But it seems that it's not possible to use both at once. Is there a way to get a reference to a component instance but from the root? The following doesn't work and I'm not sure how else to go about it:

spectator.query(`app-example`, { read: ExampleComponent, root: true })    // this doesn't seem to be allowed
