Talking with malkov@ we have a situation where we want to be able to use a painter to paint the background of a composable. Modifier.paint(Painter) doesn't work as we would like as it will not paint content. He suggested I raise a bug to get a new background modifier added that would take a painter directly.

To work around this issue I have ended up stacking a pair of boxes with the box at the back being Modifier.paint(painter) and the front one having the content.
