Out of the box, SwiftUI has a [`matchedGeometryEffect`](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swiftui/view/matchedgeometryeffect(id:in:properties:anchor:issource:)) modifier that makes it relatively easy to build hero transitions. It's cool that SwiftUI includes this out of the box, but unfortunately it has a few limitations that make it unsuitable for certain use cases. Particularly for me, that it doesn't work with presenting another view. Most examples on the internet[^1] work around this by faking a custom presented view: just slap a full-screen background color down and show your content on top of it. That's essentially the same as a presenting a full-screen view, with the one major caveat that the pseudo-presented view can only cover the containing hosting controller. And if that controller isn't full-screen (say, if it's presented as a sheet), you can't present anything that's truly full-screen. So, let's build a custom hero transition that actually presents it's content across the entire screen.
