Question

When using the Multistep dialog, is there a way to enable all steps in the side panel by default instead of having to click next to enable each step?

I have a use case where the format of Multiselect makes the most sense, but the steps are independent and not in a sequential form to be submitted at the end. The user can do what they need in the DialogBody on any step and close the MultistepDialog when done.

Research direction
Review the source code of MultistepDialog component in packages/core/src/components/dialog/multistepDialog.tsx. Consider adding a prop like 'stepsEnabledByDefault' or modifying the internal step state management. Check if there are existing tests for MultistepDialog. The maintainers may need to comment on the desired API. Ensure the change maintains backward compatibility.
