I was not sure whether this is a problem with the documentation or the code so I am submitting this here as opposed to github. In setting up Lock version 10 I found that while the documentation indicates that `state` is a parameter of `params` which in turn is a parameter of `auth` ([https://auth0.com/docs/libraries/lock/v10/customization#params-object-](https://auth0.com/docs/libraries/lock/v10/customization#params-object-)) the code in fact takes `state` directly from the `auth` object ([lock/src/core/index.js at master · auth0/lock · GitHub](https://github.com/auth0/lock/blob/master/src/core/index.js#L212)). Aside from either the code or the documentation being wrong, a consequence of this is that, as far as I can tell, there is no way to override `state` when calling `lock.show()` which, based again on the documentation, is an anticipated developer behavior. ---
