Blazor Webassembly: Unable to supress URL rewriting

[xanth]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I need navigation but sadly the URL must not be modified and as far as I can see there is no hook to disable this functionality.

Describe the solution you'd like

I'd like the ability to disable url rewriting.

Additional context

@xanth thanks for contacting us.

Are you asking for hash based routing?

[javiercn]

This issue is a dupe of #6175

[xanth]

@javiercn no I want entirely virtual routing stored in some internal state object.

[xanth]

Totally open to alternative/elegant solutions but at the moment the best solution I can see is embedding it in an iframe as a means of cordoning the real URL off.

[javiercn]

@xanth thanks for the additional details.

That's not something we have plans to support.

[xanth]

@javiercn how would one nest a Blazor app besides some other app without conflicting with the other apps routing?

[javiercn]

@xanth you wouldn't use our routing system for that.

Our routing system requires a piece of observable state in the URL, and that's a core feature of the system, so its not something we plan to change.

If you want to have a widget that can be in multiple states, then you can track that yourself, within local storage, a cookie or whatever solution you see fit.

Wouldn't it be better if the routing subsystem was plugable in such a way that the URL sourcing and syncing was configurable?
