ProgressView in LiveActivities: missing functionality

Good afternoon all,

I have a question about Live Activities, specifically ProgressView. Why are they so hard to customize? You can't even really, consistently make the bar a specific height in points. You can't provide any progress view style to make it richer and more dynamic.

We want to build a progress bar that's built up of 3 components: a track with its value constant on 1.0 (the full progress) with a specific color, another track that's the actual progress from ProgressView(timerInterval:countsDown:), and some way to create a visual gap in between.

The progress bar should also be bigger than the standard size from iOS, but that's also not possible. The corners become really ugly when you use the scaleEffect modifier.

Please, if anyone has any ideas about customizing the ProgressView without me having to send push notifications to manually make sure the bar updates, comment down below.
