Description

In the build field for deployment, we usually paste the build we need, and only rarely select it from the dropdown.
However, the dropdown does not always load quickly. Sometimes, after you paste something into this field, DOrc finishes loading the list of builds and overwrites the field with the latest available build. If you don’t notice this, you might end up deploying a different build than intended—the last available one.
It would be great to prevent this overwriting if the user has already entered something in the field.

Research direction

Start by locating the deployment build field and its dropdown-loading behavior in the C# code, then reproduce the issue by pasting a build while the list is still loading. Done means a user-entered value remains unchanged when loading completes, with coverage for the delayed-loading case.
