Steps to reproduce:

1. Open up a template item or host item
   1. In this case using zabbix agent item but impacts other types
2. Put the cursor in the key field
3. Press ctrl+c (on windows) with or without text highlighted
   1. This happens even on disabled key fields from templated items on a host

Result:
The Type of information field defaults to Text from whatever value it was originally

See attachment post ctrlc

Expected:
Type of information should not be altered if the key has not changed.

see attachment pre ctrlc

This was never an issue pre Zabbix 7.  This was introduced in 7+ and does not appear to be fixed yet.

It has caused many missed outages and issues with dependent items & preprocessors, because of accidently changing the item type without noticing the automated change
