Cannot disable an ion-list button on Ionic 2

[boaz-chen]

I have the following view which doesn't work as expected (button isn't disabled):

<ion-list> <button ion-item disabled> My Button </button> </ion-list>

Ionic Version: 2.0.0-beta.3

In my opinion: You cannot combine button with ion-item directive?!

You can:
http://ionicframework.com/docs/v2/api/components/item/Item/

"Use for something that can be clicked/tapped. Typically this element will also have a (click) handler."

As a workaround for now I've defined the following CSS:

.item-disabled, item-disabled * { opacity: 0.3; pointer-events: none; }

And then in my HTML:

<ion-list> <button ion-item class="item-disabled"> My Button </button> </ion-list>

This has been added to the beta.8 release. If you'd like to check it out sooner, I've released a nightly version that can be installed by running the following in a terminal:

npm install --save ionic-angular@2.0.0-beta.7-201605202104

If you haven't updated to beta.7 yet, check out the changelog for steps to update.

Let me know if you find any issues. Thanks!

Thanks so much!
