Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in Parse Dashboard 8.1.0 with Parse Server 8.4.0 and MongoDB 8.2.0, using Safari as reported. Check both creating a row with a custom objectId and editing an existing objectId; done means both actions allow the requested ID without the reported blocking behavior.
