[Known Issue] Using custom fields and plugins inside of Builder Previews

[pboivin]

I just added this note to the documentation:

This feature was initially designed with a focus on the Builder field, using Blocks composed of built-in Filament fields. It's possible to integrate with custom field types and 3rd party plugins but obviously, not all combinations have been tested.

Please feel free to report any issues you encounter with custom fields in this repository. I can work with you to determine where the issue is coming from.

I'll document here some of the issues that have been reported.

This field doesn't work inside of the Builder Preview modal because it needs a reference to the record to attach the images through the media relationship. The editor sidebar in the modal works with a copy of the original Builder field, which has no reference to the record from the main form.

By extension, I think most fields working through a relationship are currently not compatible with Builder Previews.
