Issue/Introduction

Milestones can be made Open for Time Entry in the Modern User Experience (UX / UI). This is not possible in the Classic UX as classic works fine. Time cannot be entered for a Milestone task as resources cannot be assigned to it. Is there a way to limit this from happening?

Steps to Reproduce: 

1. Create a new milestone task.
2. In the Classic UI, try to change the Open for Time Entry value.

Expected and Actual Results: Open for Time Entry value cannot be changed for a milestone.

3. In the Modern UX, try to change the Open for Time Entry value.
4. Toggle the Open for Time Entry checkbox on/off.

Expected Results: Open for Time Entry value cannot be changed for a milestone.
Actual Results: Open for Time Entry value can be changed.

There is a way to create a Milestone task that is Open for Time Entry in the Classic UX, by setting the default value for Open for Time Entry Task attribute value to "True" and then creating the Milestone task, or by first creating a non-Milestone task, setting the Open for Time Entry value to "True" and then making the task a Milestone.
