Show default value if field left empty in Button form

Here is a use case, which is purely a UX (transparency of automation) need:

Two issues:

  1. User needs to know what happens if the fields are left empty. Often an automation applies a default value, we need the user to see that before they hit Run.
  • Either (simple) just a manual comment in the button form (‘defaultvalues when left empty are xx xx etc)
  • or (which is better) to-one relations get a default value setting in their field configuration :partying_face: :partying_face: :partying_face: which then should be shown in the button form.
  1. in this specific example below, numeric field gets assign ‘0’ instead of empty. This is a problem and assumption that should not be there. It leads to DATA LOSS :hot_face: (the existing field values) because people think 0 means ‘not changing’ or they need to manuall remove the 0 to not overwite the existing values.
