Hello, I want to suggest a feature and I attached a picture to this chat. The idea is to have a dialog block where one can input time in a clock format like "5:00 PM" and stored in an output variable as seconds since midnight.

Currently I use dialog input set to text but I have to ensure I follow the format so that when I use 5:00 PM in a dateparse function later on, it correctly evaluates to seconds since midnight. But if there were a dialog block with a input option that already carries the time format, like in the attached picture, it decreases chances of making a mistake in formatting and is also more visually appealing.

Thank you!

Or when selecting "time only" option in dialog input block setup, the dialog box should appear like in the attached picture when flow is running and the output variable set to seconds since midnight.
