Description
Sublime Text's command palette offers a "feedback loop" where some actions continue to receive their input directly in the palette. For example, the arithmetic action:

Additionally, there is a "choose from a list" interaction type as well, shown here:
This is a really nice way to interact with actions and reduces the need for modals. If this were a thing, there are a handful of existing actions that can be improved, and some potential new ones:
- "Go to address" dialog could be eliminated and turned into a command palette interactive action
- Settings could be customized quickly directly from the command palette
- "Change type" and "change name" could be interactive command palette actions
- Probably many more things (you get the idea)
