/// Handles the pre-fetching of shared data required for the content
59+
/// management section.
60+
///
61+
/// **Strategy Rationale (The "Why"):**
62+
/// This pre-fetching strategy is a direct result of a UI component choice
63+
/// made to preserve visual consistency across the application. The standard
64+
/// `DropdownButtonFormField` is used for selection fields in forms.
65+
/// A key limitation of this widget is its lack of native support for
66+
/// on-scroll pagination or dynamic data loading.
67+
///
68+
/// To work around this, and to ensure a seamless user experience without
69+
/// loading delays when a form is opened, we must load the entire dataset
70+
/// for these dropdowns (e.g., all countries, all languages) into the state
71+
/// ahead of time.
72+
///
73+
/// **Implementation (The "How"):**
74+
/// To execute this pre-fetch efficiently, this handler utilizes the
75+
/// `ThrottledFetchingService`. This service fetches all pages of a given
76+
/// resource in parallel, which dramatically reduces the load time compared
77+
/// to fetching them sequentially, making the upfront data load manageable.
