What does an x mean on a dropdown input display value?

I am using a dropdown input on a dashboard, and there is an x inside a circle displayed after the display value. What does this mean? Is it an error?

Thanks,
Jonathan

its use for default value....when you click on x it will go to default value

<input type="dropdown" token="sourcetype" searchWhenChanged="true">
      <label>Select a sourcetype</label>
      <default>*</default>
      <choice value="schedulerr">scheduler</choice>
      <choice value="splunk_web_access">splunk_web_access</choice>
      <choice value="splunk_web_service">splunk_web_service</choice>
      <choice value="splunkd">splunkd</choice>
      <choice value="splunkd_access">splunkd_access</choice>
      <choice value="splunkd_ui_access">splunkd_ui_access</choice>
    </input>

like here on click x it will set to *
