iPeng to provide handoff to HomePod at LMS not only via iPhone?

I have one question according to iPeng: When I am doing a hand-off from my iPhone to my HomePod mini, it works - but the sound is streamed from my iPhone to the HomePod via Airplay. This works, but it would be much nicer to have a real handoff, i.e. that the action of handoff triggers a switching of the player on the LMS, so that iPeng on the iPhone is only the remote, and LMS is streaming to the HomePod via Airplay and the airplay bridge.

This would be a very nice feature.

Would that be possible?
