Markers can make Blender for Presentations
i was thinking how to make the animation stop in a specific frame for presentation( education purpose ) and then start by "spacebar" and stop the animation again .....etc it can be used for visualising a part of animation temporarely and keep it if we want to check this part of the animation later.
so my idea is to make the 'New' Special Marker plays the role of the Stopper for the animation ,also we can add an option that toogle the visibility of the a selected(Linked) collection or collections similarely to the current MARKER that can be linked to any camera .
Some other suggestions
- a shortcut to replay the animation from older Marker to the next marker,
- a way to link markers to any marker for jumping back and forth automatically(avoid manual click only a spacebar do the job) to repeate a part of animation for rexplaine a point etc and avoiding to duplicate this animation.
- looping a part of the animation until a click spacebar
those options need a UI to change the setting or a pupup when click on any marker to change related settings
thank you for reading,i hope the proposal is needed by community

I'm not sure Markers would be the way to go for a function like this, but I'm upvoting the overall idea. I think you're right in that controlling animation effectively will be important for Blender Apps and there doesn't seem to be a clear way to do it right now.
yeh,i'm now have a draft proposal idea how it gonna be temporately but i need some time to do a visualisation "similar to how geometry noodles works but for keyframes as the nodes to go back and forth and jump anywhere so maybe a bit complicated idea and i need more time for that, so as we know the playing timeline go from left to right we need a way to break it like a graphical (dependencies) way 'graph theory may be involved to help" here i propose initial way to begin with.
