Edit Hostname

Phase 1 preview — pages render fixture data only; no changes are saved.

Existing values are not rewritten. Changing the control or format of a field that assets already use can leave saved values invalid under the new rule; those assets then fail validation until corrected. Encrypted values are never editable from this definition page.
