Less a proposal and more a thing to talk about. Once applied while
navigating in viewport (specifically rotation) this shows options to
change related user preferences. The idea of making the preferences
available where used. No need for users to know what things can be
changed.

As agreed on during the latest module meeting. It'd be good to move forward with this since it exposes certain settings that many users seem to expect when coming from other software.

Another popular ones:

  • Auto Depth (shortcut D), which should show up during orbit, panning, and zoom:
    auto depth

  • Zoom to Position (shortcut Z), should show up during zoom. Ctrl+MMB only, I'm not sure we can update the statusbar during scroll, can we?

One weird complication is that I was unable to differentiate between orbiting, panning, and zooming. It was all treated like one transform operation so I couldn't show the correct options at the correct times. I'll take another look in a bit though.

Merge conflict checking is in progress. Try again in few moments.
