There is currently no tabBarButton under the options prop for createMaterialTopTabNavigator, is there any other way to customize or style the individual tabs on the tab bar (besides label and icon) without recreating an entirely customized TabBar?

Research direction

Determine the scope of supporting a tabBarButton option or an equivalent per-tab customization path. Done means individual top tabs can be customized without requiring a fully recreated TabBar.
