Description

Following a Craft 2 upgrade, I'm able to run craft project-config/rebuild, which succeeds.

There are certain fieldtypes that have no match – they remain in project.yaml, and show red in the CP.

I would assume, that running craft project-config/sync --force immediately following rebuild would always succeed, but in this case it doesn't. I get errors about missing field classes for the fields that no longer have types.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Craft 2 upgrade scenario, then run craft project-config/rebuild followed by craft project-config/sync --force. Trace the missing field-class errors for field definitions that remain in project.yaml; done means the documented sequence completes successfully or handles those unsupported fields without errors.
