I've noticed more SAAS products following a pattern of prefixing entity IDs with a few letters for the purpose of quickly identifying what type of entity is represented by the ID, for example a

Product

in Stripe would look like

prod_abcdefg

while a

Customer

would have

cus_abcdefg

... I know I could manually generate IDs in my code, but it would be very cool if I could do something like this in the schema

model Customer {
  id        String   @id @default(cuid(prefix: "cus"))  
}

Yep, I would really love this too.
