Would like the ability to define the options of a Single-Select or Multi-Select field in one place, and have the definition instantiated/referenced/used in different Types?

**Example:** Defining a Single-Select field for choosing a “Role Type”, such as:

- Content Writer
- Web Developer
- Project Manger
- SEO Specialist
- Admin
- Sales Manager

Let’s assume I have four different Databases in my app that each need one of these Single Select fields with these exact options.

I want to be able to define this field (the options) in one place, and have this definition used (and updated, should I change it in the future) in each one of my four different Databases that has this kind of field.

This is a feature request created based on this question here:
