Describe the bug

Steps to reproduce

Define a workflow with a rich text field.

const exampleWorkflow = DefineWorkflow({
  callback_id: "example_workflow",
  title: "Example workflow",
  description: "Example workflow",
  input_parameters: {
    properties: {
      currentUser: {
        type: Schema.slack.types.user_id,
      },
      currentChannel: {
        type: Schema.slack.types.channel_id,
      },
      currentTime: {
        type: Schema.slack.types.timestamp,
      },
      interactivity_context: {
        type: Schema.slack.types.interactivity,
        description: "Interactivity context",
      },
    },
    required: [
      "currentUser",
      "currentChannel",
      "currentTime",
      "interactivity_context",
    ],
  },
});

exampleWorkflow
  .addStep(
    Schema.slack.functions.OpenForm,
    {
      title: "Rich text example",
      submit_label: "Submit",
      interactivity: exampleWorkflow.inputs.interactivity_context,
      fields: {
        elements: [
          {
            name: "rich_text_example",
            title: "Rich text example",
            description: "Rich text example",
            type: Schema.slack.types.rich_text,
          },
        ],
        required: [
          "rich_text_example",
        ],
      },
    },
  );

Use the input gathered in the rich_text_example element in the above workflow step to populate the initial value of a newly opened form to contain a user group.

{
"type": "modal",
"title": {
"type": "plain_text",
"text": "Example"
},
"submit": {
"type": "plain_text",
"text": "Submit"
},
"callback_id": "example",
"blocks": [
{
  "type": "input",
  "block_id": "rich_text_example",
  "label": {
    "type": "plain_text",
    "text": "Rich text example",
    "emoji": true
  },
  "element": {
    "action_id": "rich_text_example",
    "type": "rich_text_input",
    "initial_value": {
      "type": "rich_text",
      "block_id": "aZk8MH68fe",
      "elements": [
        {
          "type": "rich_text_section",
          "elements": [
            {
              "type": "usergroup",
              "usergroup_id": "S00000000000"
            }
          ]
        }
      ]
    }
  },
},
]
}

Expected result

We should be able to submit the form without error.

Actual result

The slack form shows an error that cannot be recovered from. No errors are logged in the running app.
