Feature request: Customisable numberOfLines for List.Item

Current behaviour

List.Item’s title and description texts/components are wrapped inside a Text with fixed numberOfLines. As a result, long text elements are always cut off (even when using custom text components with numberOfLines set).

Expected behaviour

It’d be better if there is a way to customise the numberOfLines for item title/description, or at least a way to disable the default behaviour. I know that I can easily replace List.Item with a View, but I’d like to use List.Item for its standard padding/margin and ripple.
