Description

It would be great to have a little gnome shell extension to manually toggle between modes. This could work as an extension for Night Light.

Options for the dropdown:
With AutomaThemely running, "Automatic" would be enabled, and then manual Light and Dark options. When manual option is chosen, the theme is switched and AutomaThemely stops running.

I've made an example of this. Any input you have would be awesome.

ps: You are gods for making this. I have forked this repo and shared my py3.7 build.

Research direction

Start by reviewing how AutomaThemely currently switches between light and dark modes, then examine the proposed Night Light extension behavior. Define how the dropdown exposes Automatic, Light, and Dark, and verify that manual selection changes the theme and stops AutomaThemely.
