Indicate Android apps directly on launcher app icon when installed on phone

I would like an indication on the in-phone icon, similar to the ones in the Jolla Store, to see which apps are Android apps when I launch them.
Since Android apps behave rather differently than Sailfish apps (for example they share a single cover and have a completely different security model), it is useful to know which apps are Android apps and which ones are not before starting it.
I have discovered that I have too many apps to remember for certain if one of my less used ones is an Android or Sailfish app.
Well, you should be able to tell by the icon usually. Sailfish icons all share a similar look, whereas Android icons don't.

I would like something more definite; a marker added by the launcher so that there is no doubt or question (and preferably a bit quicker to spot than figuring out the shape-style).
