Papercut: Name force feilds using the type of force by default
When you add a force field, be it magnetic, turbulence, harmonic, etc. they all just get added to the outliner as "Field."
It would be nice if they were added as "Turbulance.001, Turbulance.002, Harmonic, etc." I tend to add multiple force fields to the exact same location, so being able to tell which one is which in the outliner would be a major time saver.

This should be on 2.91 now : developer.blender.org/D8420
* @rc12 * I saw this a couple minutes ago. I was almost done with my own commit too 🙁. At least it's fixed now
This is a very good task to dive into the code!
* @Pablo Vazquez * You're right. Never actually compiled Blender from source before, so I guess that's what I'm doing tonight after I finish up work in a few minutes
Oh didn't know you were interested in coding, if you do this is a great way to learn!
* @Pablo Vazquez * Thanks for the tip! I was really struggling to find a good foothold
Also the scale of the indicators of the force value needs to be adjusted. I've got to turn the wind strength up crazy high before I see any effect and by then the several circles of the widget that I guess are a visual indicator of the strength are several thousand meters apart.
* @thinsoldier * This seems like an easy fix code wise, but it will need some developer discussion to figure out exactly what the new "scale," should be.
