Describe the solution that you'd like

hi and thanks for submitting the issue there's no plan of doing it in the near future, but you can always customize the attachment and use your own widget. We'll do it eventually, it's just that we have higher priority tasks at the moment

Closing as not in our pipeline. You can always use the attachmentBuilder to provide your custom widget.
