Displaying a description with HTML tag or entity on TextColumn

is there any way to add html entity or tag inside ->description() on a table row? i have tried as following: Tables\Columns\TextColumn::make('status') ->description(fn (Tracking $record): string => \Carbon\Carbon::parse($record->date)->since() . ' ⋅ ' . $record->port->name)

in this case, do you really need the html can you not just use the encoded version

if you're sure, wrap it in new HtmlString() but its really unnessecary also be aware that you will open yourself up to XSS, so trust the port name

i used the ⋅ (encoded version), just was curious to learn. Anyway, thanks for your suggestion about XSS. I am convinced to avoid to use HTML.

@Dan Harrin @KA Does v3 remove the html support in description method? This is my code, it renders html as text: 
TextColumn::make('source')
          ->label('Source/Mode')
          ->formatStateUsing(fn(KeywordFinderSource $state): string => $state->headline())
          ->description(fn(KeywordReport $record): ?string => new HtmlString('<p class="text-2xl">' . $record->mode . '</p>'))
          ->html(),
TextColumn::make('source')
          ->label('Source/Mode')
          ->formatStateUsing(fn(KeywordFinderSource $state): string => $state->headline())
          ->description(fn(KeywordReport $record): ?string => new HtmlString('<p class="text-2xl">' . $record->mode . '</p>'))
          ->html(),
