Allow custom fields to be shared across items

We have some of the same custom fields on Epics and Initiatives that are drop down lists. Not only do we have to create them on each entity, but when the selections are updated, we have to update both fields manually. Sometimes these selections are updated monthly and there are a number of selections in the drop down. There should be an option to have shared custom fields so you only to create them on one work item and then share with another so they stay in sync.

Allowing us to manage the field only once across all of these objects would be very helpful.
