There's actually a plugin that we had HM develop that does allow users to 
create and edit external ids: https://github.com/hudmol/editable_external_ids 
I've tested against the 2.3 release, but not anything newer.

We've used this config feature for so long (since v1.4.*) that I had forgotten 
it was necessary to turn it on to see external_ids.

My advice, in earlier threads,  to use the EAD mapping between multiple unitids 
and external_ids for some issues must have seemed somewhat confusing if anyone 
tried it without also having that feature enabled.

it doesn’t allow you to create them.
Ours are added either from EAD import or via backend API. 

I had once forked changes in an older version to  allow creating them from the
