I have a project where I have a mix of hosted destinations (screens) and dialog destinations (dialogs) in Compose nav graph.

Sample nav graph:

NavHost(
    navController = navController,
    startDestination = "PostListScreen",
) {
    composable("PostListScreen") { PostListScreen() }
    dialog("EditPostDialog") { EditPostDialog() }
    dialog("SelectPhotosDialog") { SelectPhotosDialog() }
    composable("CameraScreen") { CameraScreen() }
}

I am navigating to EditPostDialog from PostListScreen, and then to CameraScreen. This pops EditPostDialog from nav stack so when I navigate back from CameraScreen with some image, EditPostDialog is gone.

Is there a way to have both dialog and hosted destinations in nav stack so this issue does not occur. I know this is expected behavior as per docs but I have different requirements in project.

Note: I have tried hosting dialog within normal hosted destination but that does not work as well.
