Description

I would like to be able to quickly iterate through changed files. e.g. One project I work on regularly has visual snapshots checked into the repository. When things change visually it is usually just a handful of snapshots but sometimes lots of images get updated. (e.g. We change global padding on our text inputs across many views.)

I would like to be able to press a button or a keyboard shortcut to go to the next file, etc.

Personally I would also like to be able to mark a file as viewed through a keyboard shortcut or even be able to mark the current file as viewed and automatically jump to the next file not marked as viewed.

Research direction

The issue names no files or tests. Start by tracing the changed-file review flow in the VS Code extension and its command or keybinding registration. Define how next/previous navigation and marking files as viewed should behave, then verify the workflow across multiple changed files.
