Enhancement Request: Show Drop-Down Arrow for Drop-Down Fields in Modern Designer

In the Forms Layout Designer when a drop-down field has been added to the form, there is nothing that indicates that it is a drop-down field without selecting it. Could the field on the form include the normal arrow on the right side to indicate its field type?

Is that a Single Line field with a Lookup or Suggestions? A true dropdown field does have the arrow in Modern Designer, but single lines don't. I agree, though. Having the option of an arrow could be beneficial, as long as it doesn't end up confusing the user so they don't realize they can type in the field instead.

It is a true dropdown field using the Modern Designer. The screenshot is from the editor though, not the live form.

Ah, I see that now. Great point, that would be really useful in the Designer to recognize the drop-downs at a glance!

I didn't see this added in LF Forms 12. Is it by chance in the works?
