Tell us about the problem

Lets say we have an app that consists of 4 pages, and lets name these pages page1, page2, page3 and page4. And lets say that we have navigated from page1 to page4, visiting page2 and page3 along the way.

Now, I wish to go back to page2 using Frame.goBack(to: BackstackEntry) by looking up page2 this way frameModule.topmost().backStack[1]. Then if I try to navigate to page3 nothing will happen. Navigating back to page1 works, but navigating forward still doesn't work.

If, instead of navigating to page2, I navigate to page1 or page3, routing will not break.
