Activity Data Screen limitation

I bought this watch because I work in construction, and I suspect that I overtrained for my first ultramarathon last year.

Since most (if not all) training guides are geared towards people who are fairly sedentary outside of their dedicated training I was hoping I'd be able to use this watch to better balance the amount of time I spend in the various HR zones.

In order for my work day to be relevant for my Training Status (and not just be logged as Stress) I need to be recording it as an activity. I created a custom activity for this purpose, which is fine (it'd be nice to just have a catch-all Manual/Physical Labor activity that would also address the other requests I've seen for Gardening or House Work or whatever), but this prevents me from using my custom Watch Face for the majority of my work week.

Instead I'm stuck using the limited "Clock" Data Screen for 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, which is not exactly ideal.

I'd really like to see a "Your Watch Face" option or at least a customizable Clock Data Screen that allows me to recreate my Watch Face so that my activity can be recorded in the background while using the Watch Face that I created to be my standard experience.

Do Garmin employees look at these forum posts? or is there a better place to submit a feature request?
