Styled Icon in a Paging Grid

There's currently no way to use Rich Text components within a paging grid at all; we're pretty much limited to a!gridTextColumn (which renders whatever it gets as plaintext), and a!gridImageColumn (which only accepts document images and similar).  Hence my feature request.  There are also other strong use cases, which is why I believe this is badly overdue functionality.

Edit (2021-07-06) - since someone has revived this zombie thread and thus floated it back to the top of community after 2.5 years, I'll go ahead and point out here that this is now a moot point since the introduction of the New Read-only Grid Component in Appian 19.2, which now inherently supports Rich Text fields (and much easier row-by-row logic in columns).
