Change checkboxes to toggle buttons in the form editor
100%
Description
The checkboxes within the inspector of the form editor should be changed to toggle buttons.

I don't know...
If you want my opinion, the usage of the toggle control (instead of the checkbox) is ... how can I say it... abused && misused throughout t the whole backend and I would hope that someday a serious discussion could be started about it.
To my knowledge the "Toggle" UI element should be used only when the change is immediately persisted and immediately takes effect and no further action (like a "confirm" or "save") is required; the metaphor behind it is: it's like the light switch of your room: when you use it, the light is on, and you don't have to confirm your order.

I understand what Riccardo is saying. In the end, a decision has to be made by the whole core. I think having those toggles within the form editor is quite some work to do. I am setting this issue "on hold" since the core has to discuss it. We will adapt the UI accordingly.

We decided to go for toggle buttons since the whole core does it. As soon as the core has a different concept, we will adapt the UI again.
