Disable "Identify origin of rows" option by default

Hello,

When adding rows to a data table

In the "Settings for added rows" menu, there is the option to "identify origin of rows", which is switched on by default.


This creates a new column of type string, that includes the origin.


However, the string data type creates problems in a subsequent Stack Columns transformation, as this causes the stacked "Data" column to become a string as well, instead of numerical.


It is of course possible to switch off the "identify origin" option with a simple click, but the user needs to be aware of it.


Can we have an option to disable this "identify origin" by default so that no column is added?


Best regards,

Yaqout Hmaid.
