Description

At this doc: https://squidfunk.github.io/mkdocs-material/setup/changing-the-language/#site-language-selector

This config always redirect to the homepage of another language:

extra:
  alternate:
    - name: English
      link: /en/ 
      lang: en
    - name: Deutsch
      link: /de/
      lang: de

Assume I'm in the https://example.com/de/customization page, click the "English" Button will be redirect to https://example.com/en/

Is it possible to set it like this

extra:
  alternate:
    - name: English
      link: /en/{nav.item} 
      lang: en
    - name: Deutsch
      link: /de/{nav.item}
      lang: de

So that I'm in the https://example.com/de/customization page, click the "English" Button will be redirect to https://example.com/en/customization page ?

Use Cases

Switching languages without leaving the current page.

I'm in the https://example.com/de/customization page, click the "English" Button will redirect to https://example.com/en/customization instead of https://example.com/en/
