Bug Description

We are using version 3.3.4 and have noticed that the field hint is no longer an option in the reporter template builder/editor. Using the field hint in combination with an error message or debug output from a report allowed staff to figure out which line in the report was causing the problem or unwanted output. The only current options in the column picker are:
Source Path
Column
Documentation
Column Label
Data Type
Field Transform

In 3.7 the field hint doesn't display as a column in the Filters section of the template editor but you can access it through the Filters Actions menu - Change Column Documentation.

If there is currently a hint the text will display in the pop-up and can be edited.

Not sure if this resolves this bug or if a column to display the hint in the grid is still needed.
