Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in the Mergin Maps mobile app with a project containing aliases for fields in an attribute form, following the supplied steps. Trace the entity-selection flow and determine where information stops being shown; done means aliased fields display their information correctly on the reported app version and the behavior is covered by an appropriate regression check.
