Bug: Unable to Replace Default Input Label with Custom Label

Environment

PHP version 7.4.33

Description

Description:
When I remove the text from an input field to add a custom label, the default label keeps reappearing. Even after clearing the field multiple times, the default text restores automatically. To apply a custom label, I have to manually select the field and type again — which creates a poor user experience.

A smoother flow is needed so that when a user clears the label, it stays empty and allows custom text without forcing the default label again.

Expected Behavior:

• When the user removes the existing label text, it should remain empty.
• The default label should not return automatically.
• The user should be able to enter a custom label directly.

Actual Behavior:

• Removing text restores the default label immediately.
• Requires manually selecting the field again to type a new label.

Steps to reproduce

Reproduction Steps:

1. Go to the Builder.
2. Add a Number field in the Add Listing form.
3. Save and go to the Add Listing page.
4. Try to edit the label text directly without selecting the text.
5. Remove the label text — it immediately restores the default label.
