Summary

Description: Allow users to pass a custom component instead of just displaying a name in the top left corner of the story. This feature will provide more flexibility for users who want to add custom clicks, dynamic content, or additional information such as icons, timestamps, or user interactions within the story header.

Why? This enhancement will enable greater customization options, improving user experience by allowing them to personalize the appearance and behavior of story elements beyond just text.

Basic Example

Instagram stories:

• Different story header when normal story (person's image, name, timestamp, profile verification)
• Sponsored tag in sponsored type of stories
• Song name when users add song to stories
• "Watch full reel" when users share reels on stories

Drawbacks

Need to change the story interface which might be the breaking change.

Unresolved questions

Should we provide any default settings as well or may be make the component optional ?
