Research direction
The issue requests a fullscreen mode for MatDialog, as described in Material Design guidelines. To implement, first review the existing MatDialog component in the Angular Material source (e.g., dialog.ts, dialog container.ts) to understand its configuration options. Then, consider adding a 'fullscreen' property to the MatDialogConfig interface and implementing the corresponding CSS styles for fullscreen overlay and panel, ensuring accessibility is maintained.
