Adding "Custom Props" Type to Base Field Type

[OsamuBlack]

Puck editor allows us to override the individual fields using override -> fieldTypes. I have a small recommendation regarding this. Add custom props type to base field in the core/types.ts file like this.

type BaseField = {
    label?: string;
    customProps: {
      [key: string]: any;
    }
};

This allows users to extend the existing fields for all sorts of requirements. For example, a user can extend the text field to support email or URL sub-types.

email: {
    type: "text",
    label: "Title",
    customProps: {subType: "email"}
}

and use it in the overrides to apply their own implementations.

Puck already passes the field props to the overrides but you need to typecast the modified fields.

email: {
    type: "text",
    label: "Title",
    customProps: {subType: "email"}
} as TextField

Hi @OsamuBlack! Is there a reason you couldn't use custom field types for this?
