Description

forEach would change the column.selectionOptions objects directly (since filter doesn’t create copies). Was that the intention? If the goal is only to adjust the labels for display, maybe map could be a safer choice to avoid mutating the original data?

Yeah, that's a good point. I copied this function from the existing code at https://github.com/nextcloud/tables/blob/038a943b443e8ba6e99074b8ed721d4f03ee2b09/src/shared/components/ncTable/partials/rowTypePartials/SelectionMultiForm.vue#L48. Unrelated to inline editing so should be updated separately everywhere.

Research direction

Start with src/shared/components/ncTable/partials/rowTypePartials/SelectionMultiForm.vue at the referenced selection-options function, then locate the other copied uses mentioned in the issue. Check whether labels are only being adjusted for display and update the relevant uses so the original selection data is not mutated; done means the affected uses are consistent and existing tests still pass.
