Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

In Article view, filtering by a category and then selecting 'new' ensures that the category is pre-selected.
For new fields, this does not. Even if the fields are filtered by a category, when '+ New' is selected, the default category is 'All'.

Describe the solution you'd like

Allow the Fields' filtered category to become the default category.

Additional context

I appreciate that fields can be allocated to several categories, but the pre-filtered category is a good start. Having 'All' is somewhat dangerous, especially if the field is mandatory and one forgets to change the category on saving the new field.

This can speed up the work of copywriters/editor users a lot, and this is a real UX improvement. Little things that make big difference.
I hope the team consider it, nice solution!
