seems like you can write html directly in the Label name field and you can use JSP tags to display it conditionally.
<pega:choose>
<pega:when name="WhenRule" >
Label_Name<font size="3" color="#e67300">*</font>
</pega:when >
<pega:otherwise>
Label_Name
</pega:otherwise>
</pega:choose>

I don't think you understood the question correctly or i didn't explain it very well.
Above is a dropdown control, the label of that control will have an asterisk when the Required dropdown in that control properties is set to always or a condition that evaluates to true, My requirement is set never for the Required dropdown and still have an asterisk(in orange color) next to the label.
Also there is no option to add icons in that control.

why don't you add an extra column with the icon representing the asterisk then? I did that in the past it was working quite well.

Actually, the use of asterisk is to indicate that it is a required field. If you don't want it to be required, why do you need an asterisk in the first place? Please explain the reason to do this.

Validation is going to happen on the server side, but we need to indicate to the user which fields are mandatory, we don't want them find it when they hit the submit button.
