More Control and Optimised DOM Output

Prerequisites

• I have searched for similar features requests in both open and closed tickets and cannot find a duplicate.
• The feature is still missing in the latest stable version of Elementor ( Elementor Pro )

What problem is your feature request going to solve? Please describe.

I'm frustrated when I want to create a complex accessible list or table and have to rely on third-party plugins or write out the entire HTML myself.
When we want to add accessible ARIA labels like "aria-labelledby" to a <ul>, it gets added to the wrapper div instead of the main <ul> element.

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be nice if we had the following:

1. A toggle to strip out all unnecessary div wrappers similar to the Unwrap Feature offered by Dynamicooo's. Bricks builder has something similar with their code element where we have a toggle to "execute code without wrapper".
2. An option to specify where custom attributes are applied, as it currently applies to the wrapper <div> instead of the desired <ul> etc. So we currently cannot do apply aria-label or aria-labelledby on the Icon List widget.
3. Custom HTML tags for Containers element where we can define custom HTML tags e.g. <picture>, <ul>, <li>, <address> etc to build customisable layouts.
4. Also a blank/basic text element without wrapper divs that can be set to any HTML tag - <li>, <th>, <tr>, <a>, <button>, <source> etc.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I can do the unwrap of unnecessary divs using Dynamicooo's Unwrap feature but unfortunately, I no longer have the ability to add custom attributes.
I can go with another builder like Bricks Builder, which allows custom tags and doesn't add unnecessary wrapper divs to elements

Big plus one, especially on the attribute request. Would be a great step towards being accessibility-ready.

@ayoubkhan558 It's a start. It removed a few html attributes from Containers but it hasn't removed the extra wrapper divs from Widgets
