Additional features to interactive voxel size adjustment

Adjusting the voxel size for remesh using mouse ( R ) is useful sometimes but also can be a bit finicky other times.

I suggest that capability of invoking manual typing and sampling during the adjustment would improve the workflow.

  • Manual typing : Similar to the same feature of the transform tools, typing numbers during adjustment directly input the voxel size. Enter/LMB confirms it.
    • This can be useful when you know the value you want and want to set it quickly.
    • Like the transform tools, typing should disable the ability of adjusting size using mouse, to prevent accidentally changing the value with small mouse movement.

  • Sampling : Directly invoke the size sampler/picker that can be accessed from the remesh option panel. Shortcut to invoke the tool should be consistent with other picker tools.
    • Invoking the sampler should disable interactive adjustment status. Confirming or canceling sampling should return to the usual sculpt status. In other words, invoking sampler is practically switching tools.

This would be a nice addition yes. For the Dyntopo resize operator on R it's already possible to hold Ctrl to sample in the viewport. Would be great to make these two operators more consistent.
