Slicer "Clear Selection" icon color attribute

I'd like to see the ability to set the color of the eraser icon (clear selection) in a slicer header to something different than the default grey.

When you use a dark color background (let's say Dark Green) with light color font (let's say medium Orange), it's very difficult for users to see the default grey eraser and clear their selections.

If some of the color setting attributes that were just added to visual headers could be brought to the Slicer header I belive the issue would be resolved.

4 years this has been on - it should be a no brainer. To get round this just now you have to create a button overlaid with reset filter for the specific filter if you want to use any dark colour

This would definitely be beneficial improvement and hope this idea gets reviewed! It's just about impossible to see the icon with a darker header background color.

Such an annoying handicap, yet so easy to fix! MS, get a Small Rapid Improvement team together to tackle easy wins with big results like this!

How is this still not fixed? This is a basic themeing option that should have been at least included with the original "Slicer Header" visual options. This needs to get done ASAP as dark background reports are virtually unusable if Slicers are heavily relied up.
