Description

An extremely common request on the forum is to retain the current camera view when switching Scene modes. There are also requests for having an easy way to instantly change scenes. I, personally, have wanted this functionality forever too. We should consider adding it soon.

The issue names SceneTransition and switching scene modes but provides no files or tests. Start by locating the scene-transition entry point and clarify whether the scope includes the requested instant scene change; completion should preserve the current camera view when the scene mode changes.
