Jira - Allow Updating Additional Field Types

Under "limitations", Harness only allows the update of certain field types: https://developer.harness.io/docs/continuous-delivery/x-platform-cd-features/cd-steps/ticketing-systems/update-jira-issues-in-cd-stages/#limitations
What we require is the ability to change a field for a group-type field, which is in a picker/single select format. We would like to ask for Harness to expand their list of supported field types to include this and other more commonly utilized fields.

This is what the Jira Admin described it to me as:
Quick clarification regarding populating ‘Group Picker’ fields in Jira from within Harness pipelines.
Earlier, I had mentioned that Harness documentation doesn’t explicitly state that ‘Group Picker’ fields aren’t supported. And technically, that’s still true in the literal sense. However, after digging deeper, I found a strong indication in the official Harness documentation that confirms our assumption.
Check out the “Limitations” section in the following Harness documentation on Jira Approval stages:
“…Harness does not integrate with Jira fields that manage users or user groups.”
That includes Group Picker fields (which are essentially group selectors in Jira Cloud). So while they don’t call out "Group Picker" by name, the implication is clear: these fields are not supported in Harness’s built-in Jira steps - whether it's for creation, update, or approval stages.

We'd like to be able to modify the resolver group either on the Jira Create step or the Jira Update step. Ideally both.
