How to store extra data in custom field except state?

Hi,

I am conducting some experiments with Filament. I have extended the SpatieMediaLibraryFileUpload class and added an action that opens a modal containing a form. When the user saves the form, I want to save the data in the background.

I added a property and a setter like this:

public array $formCustomProperties = [];

public function setFormCustomProperties(array $properties): self
{
    $this->formCustomProperties = $properties;

    return $this;
}

public array $formCustomProperties = [];

public function setFormCustomProperties(array $properties): self
{
    $this->formCustomProperties = $properties;

    return $this;
}

Here is the logic for the action (currently not working):

->action(function (array $arguments, SpatieMediaLibraryFileUpload $component, $data): void {
    $formCustomProperties = $component->formCustomProperties;
    $formCustomProperties[$arguments['key']] = $data;
    $component->setFormCustomProperties($formCustomProperties);
})

->action(function (array $arguments, SpatieMediaLibraryFileUpload $component, $data): void {
    $formCustomProperties = $component->formCustomProperties;
    $formCustomProperties[$arguments['key']] = $data;
    $component->setFormCustomProperties($formCustomProperties);
})

With this implementation, I can set the custom properties within the same session, but they are not preserved in next sessions. I need to store the custom properties similarly to how Livewire properties are stored.

Thank you for your assistance.
