Description of the need
Every single time I add a new field, I have to go to respective content type's default display to choose one of the Above or Inline options instead of Hidden set by default.
Proposed solution
Not sure which one of two options - Above or Inline - make more sense, but either one set by default would be a better and intuitive setting instead of Hidden. It would save little time for developers and website admins, and would not confuse new Backdrop users scratching their heads why having added new fields and populating them with values they see only values without any labels explaining what is what.
