Expose Domain/Mode Dropdowns as Inputs in Nodes

Currently, dropdown menus in Geometry Nodes (such as “Domain” in For Each Element, or “Mode” in a lot of other nodes) cannot be exposed as inputs.

This means that if I want the same setup / node group to work with different modes/domains (e.g., Point, Edge, Face, Instance), I have to duplicate the same setup for each variant. Capture d'écran 2025-08-08 170754.png

Proposal: Allow these dropdowns to be promoted to inputs. This would make setups more flexible, easier to automate, and reduce unnecessary duplication of node networks.

Something similar to the “Switch” node menu input would be perfect — so we could dynamically select the mode/domain from outside the node.

This would be especially valuable for capture/store attribute nodes in nodegroups. Right now, many node groups need to have a separate duplicate created for each individual domain the creator wants them to operate on.

Perfeclty sensible suggestion.

I saw that they started implementing it for a few nodes in 5.0, so we're on the right path
