run multiple navigation animations concurrently

[aweary]

Imagine you have an interface like this:

I've noticed that if you navigate to the Item Details screen from the modal one, the animations are sequenced: it will navigate to the Item Details view behind the modal view, and then the modal will close. This makes the interaction within the modal feel really slow, because you don't really notice the background animation happening.

Is there a way to get those animations to run concurrently, so that when a user taps a List Item within the modal view the modal dismiss animation and the item list -> item details animation happen at the same time?
