Allow removing all Fields from a Form Trigger Node

The idea is:

Allow the form trigger node to have no fields at all. Currently it defaults to one text field and get’s constantly added back. Ideal would be to keep the default, but allow to delete it.

My use case:

A workflow which generates dynamic form fields already at the beginning of the user journey within a New Form Page Node. Currently my form trigger node uses a custom placeholder text to somehow indicate that there is nothing to do on the first form.

I think it would be beneficial to add this because:

Since retrieving data (for dynamic form field values) before calling the form trigger node is not possible, it would be great to have a way to at least kick of a form series by having a page (initial form) that only has a description and a button to start the process.

Are you willing to work on this?

Maybe, but I believe you guys are way faster done with this.

Yes please! This would be great.

What would work even better for similar use cases I would love to automate with n8n but current cannot is: allow the form trigger to not show any form AT ALL.

I.e., the node is simply passed without user interaction, passing any query parameters along. Then we can do all and any calculations, call other services and show form pages/ create individual form pages using json based on the outcome.
