Ionic-framework: Feature request: Escaping literals in ion-datetimes displayFormat

[BenjaminKauer]

Short description of the problem:

I'd like to be able to escape string literals / characters in ion-datetimes property displayFormat in order to be able to control the output more flexible.

What behavior are you expecting?

I'd expect something like

<ion-datetime displayFormat="d\ay DD.MM.YYYY" ... ></ion-datetime>

or

<ion-datetime displayFormat="\(day)\ DD.MM.YYYY" ... ></ion-datetime>

to produce
day 27.06.2016

Another way to solve this could be transclusion:

<ion-datetime ... >
  {{DDDD}}, the {{DD}} of {{MM}}/{{YYYY}}
</ion-datetime>

Which Ionic Version? 1.x or 2.x
