AlertController: possibility to add <ion-icon> in message parameter

When createing an AlertController object:

let alert = this.alertController.create({
   title: "My title",
   message: 'Some message'
});

it would be great if we could add an ion-icon in the message, like this:

let alert = this.alertCtrl.create({
    title: this.translate.instant("tos.title"),
    message: '<ion-icon name="add-circle"></ion-icon>some text'
});

the ion-icon is removed (not rendered). First I thought the framework was removing html markup, but html standard tags (h1, h2, p, etc…) are not.

The place you moved it to is not available anymore. Any chance to see the progress or get some indication of the very rough expected timeline?

Also Toast can have icons, maybe some thing like

let toast = this.toastCtrl.create({
              message:'message',
              icon : "information"
            });

or may be the approach like OP
