Field Type Indicator

Description - When creating a view, group, filter, or report it can be difficult to know if a given field is: (a) a default Workfront Field or a custom field, and/or (b) what type of custom field it is (e.g. text, drop down, checkbox date, etc). It would be great to have a visual indicator to show the field origin (default v custom) and field type.

Why is this feature important to you - If there was an indicator it would make report, view, group, filter creation much easier.

How would you like the feature to work - Simple visual indicator in the interface that indicates field type. See attached.

Current Behaviour - There is no way to distinguish between custom and default fields nor a way to determine what type of field it is (date? Text? Choice?). I will often take a peek at text mode to see if there is a DE: just to be sure - an unnecessary waste of time.
