Resolving variables into modal with ui.router

[Eksrow]

I am trying to use your lib in combination with state resolves of ui-router and my code looks a bit like this:

.state({
    name: 'main',
    url: '/main',
    controller: 'InputViewCtrl',
    templateUrl: 'tpl/overviewInput.html',
    resolve: {
        tasks: function(Shared, TaskService){
            return TaskService.getTasks(Shared.getMonthParameters())
        }
    }
})
.state({
    name: 'main.addtask',
    url: '/addtask',
    onEnter: function(modal, tasks){
        modal.activate(); 
    },
    onExit: function(modal){
        modal.deactivate();
    },
    resolve:{
        modal: function(btfModal){
            return btfModal({
                controller: 'ExternalTaskAddCtrl',
                controllerAs: 'modal',
                templateUrl: 'tpl/partials/externalTaskAdd.html'
            });
        }
    }
})

So as you can see, in my 'main' state I resolve the tasks variable and in my sub-state 'main.addtask' I wish to use this that variable. Now I could easily fix this with:

modal.activate({tasks : tasks});

But that loses the dependency injection in my modal and is directly inserted in the scope. Is there a way I can achieve it that looks similar to what the angular ui-bootstrap modal is doing?[1]

i'd go with a service wrapped around this particular modal that would return a promise :-)
