| This allows the agent to send all `route-change` transactions regardless if it contains any spans or not. This is usefull if you want to keep track of all the navigations your app is doing. |

Need to call out how sampling plays a role in here as well.

There might be a request to add the same logic to user-click events as well, lets make this flag generic? reportAllTraces something along these lines ?

At 1st I thought maybe to filter by transaction type. I don't have a strong opinion. Do we want a single or more fine grained control?

My suggestion is recordEmptyTransactions. Empty meaning with no spans. WDYT?

The route change transaction is a type of transaction that can be interesting eve if it does not contain spans. Can be used to track the journey of the users across the instrumented web application. Is specifically useful for single page applications (SPA) where the URL can change without performing any HTTP request (hence no spans) because of the app caching data or because there is no need to fetch data.
The change introduces a new flag in configuration named
sendAllRouteChangeswhich defaults tofalsekeeping the current behavior. Apps that wants to record all transactions of typeroute-changecan set this config totrue.
