Is your feature request related to a problem?

Currently, when adding an essence modifier to an item, every tier of each essence type is displayed in a single dropdown, making it hard to find the one you are looking for.

Describe the solution you'd like

Similar to eldritch implicits, we could have 2 dropdowns: one for the type of the essence, one for its tier.

Research direction

Start by locating the item-editing UI that builds the essence modifier dropdown, then compare it with the existing eldritch implicit dropdown. Done means essence modifiers are selected through separate essence-type and tier dropdowns, with all existing tiers and types still available.
