[Not Accepted[ Docker app - add support for port ranges in the form editor

Feature Requests
1

Problem/Justification
Hello Team,

While creating a custom docker app, I have noticed that the docker app creation editor does not allow to enter a ports range which is a huge problem for apps requiring a large ports range

This is a highly needed standard feature.

Impact
(How is this feature going to impact all TrueNAS users? What are the benefits and advantages? Are there disadvantages?)

Makes is difficult to create a docker app requiring a ports range. AgentDVR for instance needs ports range 50000-50100/udp. It will be very hard to enter these one by one

User Story
(Please give a short description on how you envision some user taking advantage of this feature, what are the steps a user will follow to accomplish it)

Is pasting a Compose file in YAML not an adequate way to address this?

i liked still having advantage of the wizard and forms of non-direct-yaml ix App, so i generated a small bash script:

sleep 10
# First click the Add button 100 times
echo "Clicking Add button 100 times..."
for i in {1..100}
do
    xdotool click 1
    sleep 0.1
done

echo "Done creating entries!"
echo "Position your cursor in the first Container Port input box and press Enter..."
read

# Starting port number
port=50000

# Now fill in all the ports
for i in {1..100}
do
    # Type port number
    xdotool type "$port"
    
    # Tab to next field
    xdotool key Tab
    sleep 0.1
    
    # Type same port number
    xdotool type "$port"
    
    # Tab twice to get to next Container Port input
    xdotool key Tab Tab Tab
    sleep 0.1
    
    # Increment port
    ((port++))
done

echo "Done filling ports!"
