As a user, when adding a new field to a record, I would like for the field state to remain when going from a Single Line or Secret Single Line to a Multi-Line or Secret Multi-Line or Heading.
Description of Current Behavior
Currently, the default data type for a new field in a record is Single Line Secret. This is good. However, if I enter a value, such as "test" in there, and I subsequently switch to Multi-Line, Secret Multi-Line, or Heading, the current value in the field seems to be erased and replaced with a boiler plate text of "Value of field".
Proposed Change
If there is already text in the value field, it remains when the value type is changed from Single Line or Secret Single Line to Multi-Line, Secret Multi-Line and Heading and vice versa.
Notes
The field text already maintains state when going from either Single Line type to URL or vice versa.
