Research direction

Start by reviewing the Command Palette input-panel flow, the input handlers, and the preview feature mentioned in the issue. Determine whether the preview supports multiple lines and how a syntax help message could fit; the work is done when the improved input flow and any agreed preview behavior are implemented.

Description

enhancement

Using input handlers and the preview feature makes for a better UX than an input panel.

(Need to check if the preview can span multiple lines to also show a quick help message about the syntax, for example.)
