Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

When Table has several views (say, each filtered by field 'Team'), option 'Create row' has different behavior:

Filtered View Main view

Describe the solution you'd like

As I suppose, that information is still available in the component (select for "Team" is hidden, Table header has the information), value should be provided when submitting a new row. Also button label can be explicit about it:

Research direction

Reproduce the Create row behavior in a filtered View and compare it with the main Table view. Start by tracing the View component and the hidden Team filter when the row form is submitted. Done means a new row receives the filtered field value and the button label clearly indicates that behavior.
