A new collapsible panel above the input prompt, AbovePrompt/AbovePromptInput/AbovePromptSelect, lets plugins render buttons, inputs, and selects, navigable via tab, arrows, enter, and escape. Two new default key bindings were added: ctrl+x ctrl+a toggles the panel (abovePrompt:toggle) and ctrl+x tab focuses it.
