Is it possible for a child composable to ignore the padding of the parent?

Is it possible for a child composable to ignore the padding of the parent?

[allan.conda]

Let’s say for example:

Column(
    Modifier.padding(horizontal = 16.dp)
) {

    Text()
    
    Divider() // is it possible to ignore padding?
    
    Text()

    Button()
}

I was thinking it might be nice to apply the padding once instead of

Column {

    Text(Modifier.padding(horizontal = 16.dp))
    
    Divider()
    
    Text(Modifier.padding(horizontal = 16.dp))

    Button(Modifier.padding(horizontal = 16.dp))
}

Or is there a better way to handle such scenario?

Does .required* help you? Modifier.requiredWidth(...) as an example in your Divider modifier.
