Flexible text fields

Hi,
The upcoming flexible text fields sound very interesting to me
(https://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/NewInLyX24#textfields). Is it possible to
create an arbitrary custom text with it that can be re-used in sentences
all over the document?
For example, I decide to define a term, say, "the Strange Hypothesis"
and insert this field throughout the document. But later on I change my
mind, and would rather like to use a different name, say, "the Bizarre
Hypothesis". Could I do this without having to change the definition all
over the place. And there is another thing that would be nice. As I
don't capitalize all the words in the name ("the"), it would be great if
one could choose to (manually) capitalize the name, e.g. at the
beginning of sentences. Maybe from the field's context menu, similarly
as with formatted references.
Kind regards,
Daniel
