Description
NASA's OpenSpace project has some interesting camera controls, shown in their docs at https://docs.openspaceproject.com/en/latest/using-openspace/navigation/camera-paths.html.
In summary, this has:
- Velocity control
- Preventing rotation while moving (we could do this for e.g. Makie but it would require tight integration + path planning, not a priority right now I think)
- Orbital modes - orbit around latitude or object's upvector

Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start by reading the linked OpenSpace camera-path and idle-behavior documentation, then inspect FlyThroughPaths.jl's existing camera and path entry points. Before coding, define which of velocity control and orbital modes are in scope and what behavior and tests would demonstrate completion.
