How to share a URL with fragment in Safari on iPadOS

When I open a URL that ends in a fragment with Safari on iPadOS 15 (e.g. https://example.com/page#heading), Safari will scroll to the position identified by the fragment (heading). But when I then try to share that URL via Mail, the URL entered into the mail's body does not include the fragment (https://example.com/page). So only a link to the top of the page is shared.

This also happens with URLs that have a slash before the hash tag (https://example.com/page/#heading).

How can I share a URL with its fragment via Mail in Safari on iPadOS?

The only easy way I've found is to select the url in the top url bar and copy it from there. That will maintain the fragment, but I strongly agree that a setting to always do this would be super useful. I'm not a fan of this change from Apple.
