Add “Secret Notes” field type
The existing notes field is useful, but sometimes sensitive information should not be displayed in plain text.
I would like Proton to introduce a “Secret Notes” field type, where content is hidden by default (similar to how passwords are handled).
Example use case: Storing 2FA recovery codes.
Currently, each code would require a separate “secret” single-line field, which is cumbersome. With secret notes, multiple codes (or other sensitive information) could be stored securely in one hidden, structured field.
This would improve usability and security, while keeping entries more organized.

If I am not mistaken, you are interested to get store other relevant secure content inside a one single entry?
Have you tried the option inside any entry while editing "Add field" > "Hidden" option? This can generate a custom field having the name of your choice, and the text completely obscured by default.I am consistently and widely use this feature, and even sometimes the "Add Field > Date" field for my hints too.
The great thing is, this is even not limited to creating one Hidden text field only, but you can literally create unlimited fields of your choices and each field having your chosen name.
Please let me know if I couldn't get you and the idea is not yet actually implemented.
