Malformed Value Appears During Data Input
Open, LowPublic

Description

While user is typing something like coordinate location into the value field, a box constantly pops up telling them that their entry is a malformed value. Although it may be true that it is currently not complete (and so technically malformed), it can be confusing for a user on the right track to get this unhelpful message without any advice on how to address it.

At minimum, I recommend adding some example entry formats to the message and making the language more friendly.
