Add URL Type (or Property) for Column Definitions

It looks like the template approach to adding URL behavior to EJ2 DataGrid column no longer works.
At least my attempts failed (column reference such as {{:myURL}} is ignored).
And I can see a 2019 forum reply that recommends a more complex solution:

In my case, that approach is too complex because I need to generate the column definitions on the fly based on the dynamic data set I'm processing. 



Please consider making it easier to assign URL hyperlink behavior to a column.



Option 1: bring back support for {{:columnName}} references in the inline template within the column definition area.


- or - 


Option 2: add Column properties of 'url: true', 'url_column: {{column name}}', 'url_title: toolTipText'
