    Description

      When importing a type in a process, the expectation is to see that type in any DataType dropdown list in Stunner (Process Variable, Assignments).

      This leads to problems as reported at KOGITO-225 and KOGITO-992, which states that a user needs to manually type custom types every time which is error-prone.

      However, the Jiras above were not about importing but they are side effect of not having this working. This Jira is restricted to: once a datatype is explicitaly imported in diagram, it should show up in dataypes dropdown menus.
