Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The user wants to enhance the document interaction experience by allowing users to select or highlight specific text within a document and then initiate a multi-turn conversation or Q&A session about that specific selected content. This would enable more context-specific and targeted interactions with the document, allowing users to dig deeper into particular sections or passages by asking follow-up questions directly related to the highlighted text.
