Laravel Nova Impersonation - Redirects to / would like to redirect to backend

Question

I'm using the new (as of writing this) Laravel Nova 4.0 and the official impersonation trait / implementation.

When I impersonate a user it redirects to the frontend homepage /. I would like it to redirect to /admin in general. If I can achieve this, I'd really like to have more granular control which users (based on a simple user type) go to which route by default.

I can't find anything in the documentation, looking through the code or other questions asked in Nova threads.

config/nova.php has options as to which URLs you can use when starting/stopping impersonation:

    'impersonation' => [
        // NOTE: change this from the default '/'
        'started' => '/admin',
        'stopped' => '/',
    ],

Because this is loaded as a config file, it's potentially worth noting that you can't use named routes here as the configuration will be bootstrapped in before the routes are defined.
