How to set version number and product information in .Net Core self-contained exe

I have a .Net Core v2.2 project and I set the Publish options as follows:

I also set the Package information:

enter image description here

Also modified the .csproj file as follows:

The Details of the generated(?) exe looks like this:

What else should I set to make those informations appear not only in the dll file but in the exe file as well?

UPDATE

According to the possible answer, there is a fundamental change in the upcoming version of the .Net Core SDK starting with version 3.0. After verification, this question and answer will help solving the issue instead of providing an explanation of why it can't be done.

I updated my Visual Studio 2019 to version 16.2.5 (latest is 16.3.1) and installed the new .Net Core 3.0 SDK. After that the generated exe contains all the version information and can be used as expected.
