It should be more immersive in the sense of when I have my focus on editing the task, everything else should blur. And hitting esc should un-focus and resume playback. Currently, it's unclear which task I'm performing, and my intents aren't being smoothly fulfilled. I could be editing a task, but it lets me navigate the stream at the same time with arrow keys, and I just don't know how we should go about it, but it feels off.

The same could be done with editing text if we wanted to make it insanely ergonomic and consistent.

One approach for text particles and tasks is that there should be a focus mode, where if I click on the content container, it would blur everything else and pause the stream playback. And then I could escape to continue in the stream. I don't know what you think about this mechanically, but we need to explore here.
