For users/builders of Single Page Application web apps -- the fact that guide navigation is a FULL page refresh (aka it is a Redirect) leads to a non-optimal end user experience (and engineering integration experience)
Has this been considered on the roadmap?

Thank you for the suggestion/idea.
Yes, the guide navigation uses redirect which will perform a page refresh. A refresh ensures that any other necessary web app actions/operations also occur, this is safest route.
Having said that, for those that understand the risk/ramification, I believe it would good to provide a product-level “admin” toggle option to choose between
a) Use standard redirect (default behavior)
b) Use pushState for SPAs to avoid full refresh (with an “Are you sure/warning” message)
