Description
Request
Please support line-level review progress within a PR diff.
Reasoning
For large changed files, file-level viewed/unviewed is too coarse. I often review a file in multiple passes and want a way to distinguish the lines I already reviewed from the lines I still need to look at.
Possible behavior
- mark selected lines or ranges as reviewed
- visually de-emphasize already-reviewed lines
- persist the state locally for the current PR / head SHA
A local-only feature would already be useful.
Contributor guide

First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start by locating the existing file-level viewed/unviewed state in the PR diff UI and its persistence path. The issue needs a settled design for selecting ranges, displaying reviewed lines, and scoping stored state to a PR and head SHA before implementation can be considered done.
