Assistant: Default to block under cursor

[dremnik]

I know people are already thinking about the agent mode and all that, which is definitely where things should go .. but one small thing that would be massive convenience is to have the inline assistant automatically select the code block under your cursor.

This is something that Cursor does with cmd-k and is really nice.. so if you are over the definition of a function it automatically puts the entire function in scope for the change.

Seems like it would be really easy to do considering Zed already has all the elements necessary for it..

It's just that little bit of friction each time (not horrible as a vim user to usevaf first) but it would still be nice if it did this

It's worth noting that I've found Zed's assistant to be a little finicky wrt aligning the scope around a consistent indent in the code .. if you cross over the end of the function or only select the top half, it can tend to remove braces or destroy the structure, which is why this feature would be especially nice (helps avoid that kind of stuff from accidental misselections)
