Why doesn't React Native offer native support for changing the color or visibility of the "NavigationBar" for android?

[gomes042]

We already have the element "StatusBar" and we can define its color/style

    <StatusBar backgroundColor="#COLOR HEX HERE" barStyle="..." />

But there is no "NavigationBar" element yet. It would be interesting...

    <NavigationBar backgroundColor="#COLOR HEX HERE" barStyle="..." />

UPDATE: It would probably be the kind of thing that React Native don't want so they don't need to worry about supporting RN non-trivial components, keeping focus on "engine stuff".

See #23313
