Description
Use cases:
- Switching schemes - I want to be able to see what the scheme will look like, before I commit to it
- Changing opacity - I'm thinking we have a nested "Change opacity..."/["opacity: 0%", "opacity: 5%", "opacity: 10%"...] commands, and as they key through them, it updates in real time
- Probably useful with the tab switcher
These would need to be commands that could be undo-able. Commands where we could build a "reset" command given the current state of the Terminal, and hitting esc to dismiss the palette would revert to the original state.
I'd imagine that not all commands could be previewed. Can't preview "open a new tab".
If you went from one previewable command to another of the same action type, then we don't need to reset in between. But going from a "see theme to foo"->"set opacity to 5%" commands, we'd need to undo the first, then cache the state for the second command.
Could probably have some ActionArgs implement IPreviewable, with a ActionAndArgs GenerateUndoCommand(AppLogic); method. Anything that's "preview":true would need to implement that interface.
