How do I get the current user's access token in AngularFire2?

Question

In AngularFire you were able to access the providers (e.g Google) accessToken for the authenticated user.

There does not seem to be a way to access this with AngularFire

With AngularFire2 : ( eg : registering user with email and password combo. )

import { AngularFireAuth } from 'angularfire2/auth';
model : any = {} ;
private afAuth : AngularFireAuth,

regWithEP () {
    this.afAuth.auth.createUserWithEmailAndPassword(this.model.email, this.model.password).then((user) => {
    /* IMPORTANT !! */
    /* EXPLICIT CHECK IF USER IS RETURNED FROM FIREBASE SERVICE !! */

          if (user) {
            console.log(user);
            /* Here user is available and is the same as auth.currentUser */

            this.afAuth.auth.currentUser.getToken().then((token) => {

            //token is available here
            //set token to currentUser, signIn , re-direct etc.
            });
        }
    });
}
