iOS 14.x Mail App -- Send from Alias???

The ability to send email from an Alias on the iPhone was removed from Apple's Mail app for iOS beginning with iOS 14.0 and still has not returned. This ability had existed for at least a decade prior to going away. Specifically with iCloud and GMail. Likely other providers as well.

Will this ever be coming back? Ironically, iOS 14 opened up the ability for third party email apps to become the default and from what I've seen, they all seamlessly offer this option. However I'd far prefer to stay with Apple's app. I've kept it as my default/primary app, but have to switch to another app just to send emails correctly.

iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 14
