Is it possible to animate a transition from one route to another?

The Reactium SDK has a feature for each route, activated when a route is registered with transitions: true, and will let you cycle through pre-defined transitions from one route to another using Reactium.Routing.nextState(). You can use this feature to animate with a library like TweenMax or with CSS transitions or key frames.
