Right now it's impossible to add a one-off global data model. An example where this could be useful is something like a highlight article. You could create a model that references an article. This model should only have one entry. Right now you could add an infinite amount of entries to that model. The only workaround is to limit the entries with a validation hook, which is not ideal.
This is a basic feature which almost any other CMS has, e.g. payload CMS: https://payloadcms.com/docs/configuration/globals
This would be also used on the `Settings` model for example or any model that would hold only one entry.
