Enable ModifyDate and LastEditor as columns in List views

Summary

The ModifyDate and LastEditor fields are both out-of-the-box (OOTB) fields available on all entities. However, we are currently unable to add them directly to list views as columns. The existing workaround involves creating a custom field coupled with metric automation, which is not ideal. These are fundamental fields of entities that should be readily available to be added to any views.

Requested enhancement

Make the following fields available to add directly to List views as columns (without requiring formulas or workarounds):

  1. ModifyDate
  2. LastEditor (for example, display name)

Acceptance criteria

  1. ModifyDate is available as a selectable column in list views.
  2. LastEditor is available as a selectable column in list views.
  3. Both fields support sorting in list views.
