Quat::from_euler truncates rotations to a single rotation

I need a function that is similar that DOES NOT truncate rotations to a single rotation but maintains all rotations. Please make one like this - i do not see available in bevy docs (which uses glam)

Could you provide an example of what you are trying to do?

Closing without additional info, however I'm assuming that this is about having euler angles greater than 2pi radians resulting in a quaternion that is modulo 2pi radians (e.g. a euler rotation of pi radians is the same as 3pi radians in the resulting quaternion). This is the nature of unit quaternions, they represent a rotation around an axis, the "number of rotations" from euler angles will be lost.
