Fixes #102116
Fixes #102405

This PR fixes a few usability issues with time shift in Lens:

I'm not sure about the placeholder change. We thought about something like "Enter a time shift. Type to specify custom values (e.g. 8w)" but the space is way to tight for that. The best i could do is "Type custom values (e.g. 8w)", but even that won't be visible on all screen widths:

For the space issue, you could use the helpText property instead of placeholder. What do you think about explaining only the custom option as part of helpText?

What do you think about explaining only the custom option as part of helpText?

@wylieconlon the problem with this is the dropdown covers the helper text and, as soon as you click "time shift" in the popover, we move the user into the dropdown for fewer clicks & what I assume are good accessibility reasons.

I think Type custom value gets the important part across (type) even if it gets clipped. Not sure about other languages of course. But either way the placeholder seems better than what it is now which is redundant Time shift

@wylieconlon @ghudgins If you are happy with this solution, I am happy - I think it's better than the current placeholder and we can give it a shot and see whether this problem is still happening.
