When a user leaves the app and clears it from running in the background the dropdown value should reset to the default value. ---

We can Change Input Value, but not Dropdown values - I am totally flummoxed as to why this is not a default feature of the Dropdown and is currently not possible - being unable to reset a Dropdown selection makes for really poor UI/UX. Please Adalo, get this fixed ASAP! ---
