Same ask here, our app is to record machine temperature which we need the input field display format like  '5.x °C' during user input. The column should remain numeric type.

Prefix and Suffix are crucial for my app too. Are there any updates? My columns need to retain their Decimal type as they are used in a variety of calculations, but when displayed (e.g. in Form views or in a list secondary header) they need to have a suffix (e.g. "g", "kcal", "reps" etc).

This would benefit alot tech apps! I'm looking forward into it since I'm developing app related to water management.

I have had a look, is this in the pipeline to be looked at, being able to add meters cubed or litres would be great on a numeric value.
