Can't get property container ref element - React-spring v9. ParallaxLayers. useRef

Feature Request

Theres a small regression in what the refs contained when passed to Parllax components i.e. you don't get to access the actual nodes. It would be helpful to re-introduce these and add this to the documentation. They could be called container as they previously were, but i'm also open to suggestions of a more intuitive name.

^{Originally posted by **pvldsgn** November 24, 2021} Hello everyone! I'm not sure if this belongs to the category of questions, because it looks like a bug: When i want add event scroll to track its position on the page, i used useRef and almost everything worked, except for the smoothness of the scrollToTop event, but that's not about it now. Then I got the value of useRef as an object indicating what kind of object it was and could manipulate it (I needed to get the value of ref.current.container) Was: console.log(ref) console.log(ref.current.container) At that time I used react-spring@8.0.27 with that dependency `import { Parallax, ParallaxLayer } from 'react-spring/renderprops-addons'` But when i needed add sticky container it's not worked And I had to turn to the example from the react-spring documentation There I encountered other dependencies `import { Parallax, ParallaxLayer } from '@react-spring/parallax'` With which the sticky container worked, but the opportunity to get the correct ref was broken Become: object itself disappeared and became impersonal console.log(ref) console.log(ref.current.container) Question: How do I get the correct ref in this case? Thank's for any help!

looking back at 8.0.27 and then 9.x.x on, it seems these were never added to the forwarded refs in the version change (whereas I guess it happened for free in older versions).

i'm into this -- with this addition, users should be able to listen for scroll events on Parallax, which I've seen a few requests for/questions about. I should have some time this week to do it!

That's great news, thanks @kindoflew
