Edit multiple files in one request with Copilot #1098

Description

@ZFYL

I am using Copilot in a Django project which i try to keep really vanilla. Thus it's using all the basic building blocks and Copilot easily applies the best practices. But i find myself in long sessions of copy paste into different linked files urls.py, models.py, views.py, serializers.py and tests.py etc. So these are simple changes that need to be made in 8+ files every time.

Would be nice to have a @workspace /edit Add a new field to the Requests model and change all the subsequent related files in the project that shows a similar UI like /new and when pressing an Apply changes button it adds the changes.

The changes could be reviewed during a commit. If the commit contains breaking changes we could rollback the changes.

Is there in plans to add such a feature? Is there a similar plugin or a command combination that does this or similar?

Thanks for the response!
