Which @angular/* package(s) are the source of the bug?

animations

Is this a regression?

No

Description

I'd like to have an :enter animation for the new route (the previous component should be instantly removed), but when I have an element with :leave animation in the previous component, it stays in place till the new route animates in.

Please provide a link to a minimal reproduction of the bug

Reproduction:

The home route has a list rendered.
Navigating to the about page animates in the element below the home and then the home disappears.
The about route does not have a list rendered.
Navigating back to the home page removes the about page instantly and animates in the home page.
