Load Data into a Feature Class should only show matching Geometry in Input Datasets dropdown

When loading data into a feature class in a Pro Project, only show matching geometry.

When loading data into a feature class you can select the data to load from the input datasets drop down.

This should filter to only show feature classes with a matching geometry.

And it should not show the Feature class as an option to add to the feature class

Point, line, or Polygon, etc

Thanks for this Idea @RobertBorchert

Could you help us understand more about exactly how you are loading data. What tools or workflows are you using. This will help us understand where this idea should be placed. Are you using a GP tool? A Wizard? The data loading tool set? Something else?
