How to customise downloading UI for on demand instant modules in android

Question

Currently when requesting another instant module using url deep linking, like so:

    val intent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri)
    intent.setPackage(applicationContext.packageName)
    intent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_BROWSABLE)
    startActivity(intent)

a progress bar is shown at the top of the screen in a separate activity before the target activity is opened

Is there a way to customise the downloading UI, to add a downloading text, or branding image, etc.?

Looked at the samples in https://github.com/android/app-bundle-samples/tree/main/InstantApps, and there doesn't seem to be any option, should I try raising an issue in issuetracker.google.com? (componentid:316045)

There is a codelab that explains it in details
