It’s good to see the command palette pattern gain adoption. I’ve introduced a few people now to command-space in macOS and they’ve all loved it. Why hunt for an icon when you can just type “TextEdit”?

Maybe a future macOS will allow apps to hook into the spotlight search bar and present their command palettes there, in a standard way?
