@Dependency(\.dismiss) not working under a deep-linking scenario

[wltrup]

Hello :)

We have a situation where @Dependency(\.dismiss) works fine if scenes are navigated into by the user but not if navigated into through deep-linking. Dismissing by using @Environment(\.dismiss) works in both cases. I built a small toy app (attached) to demonstrate.

In the screen recording, you see that deep-linking from the root to A to B then tapping the dismiss button that uses @Environment(\.dismiss) works in both B then A. But deep-linking from the root to A to B then tapping the dismiss button that uses @ Dependency(\.dismiss), in B, does not work.

Yet, navigating from the root to A then to B one scene at a time (tapping the "Show Next Scene" button), then tapping either dismiss button works fine in both B and A (this isn't shown in the screen recording, to save on space).

Thanks for taking the time to take a look.

Haven't had a chance to dive in too deeply, but this looks like it may be a SwiftUI bug with navigationDestination bindings. If you change each navigationDestination view modifier to a sheet modifier, it all works just fine. SwiftUI's navigationDestination(isPresented:) view modifier is sadly buggier than other presentation APIs, and so you may need to resort to workarounds like using @Environment(\.dismiss) instead.
