Format Table Frame Field Callout Point Symbol Using .lyrx Layer Symbology

It would be useful if in ArcGIS Pro if there was an option to have the callout option in Table Frame be able to symbolize using the point symbol such that each record in the table has a unique colour from the symbology associated with a .lyrx layer file.  There is a need for this so that we can have ID records in the table match up with the symbology in the map across a map series (right now you only have the option of a single colour for all records, but what would be helpful is something like the below having up to 60 symbol classes symbolized by the field using the multi-part colour ramp like with symbology properties - right now symbols have to be manually placed over top of the text in the table to get the right symbol colour associated with each record).  I have a screen capture to help further elaborate but the submit idea option will not allow me to upload images as such.

I like this Idea and think it would be a good addition, but also, have you tried creating label classes from symbology?AlfredBaldenweck_0-1726766561967.gif

It does (annoyingly) 1) not take the full symbol of your current label class and 2) similarly doesn't seem to work on callouts, but it might be helpful?

Thank you for the response @AlfredBaldenweck .  What I am trying to use callouts in is actually for a Table Frame in a layout as opposed to labels.  I still can't upload images to the post, but perhaps the below links (which are only temporary) will help clarify what I was referring in the original idea / suggestion for ArcGIS Pro?

The second of the above temporarily linked images where it is highlighted in a blue outline is where it would be nice to have the added functionality of being able to symbolize the point symbol by unique values using an existing layer file.
