Describe the feature

I'd like a way to expand only a single item instead of all items.

Provide background

My workflow is to expand context around various things I'm working on, and then to edit in place and save. I much prefer to visit one, expand it until I see all the context I need and then make my edits, and collapse it. (ideally remove it, but I'm just beginning to explore the quickfix list and don't know how to remove yet)

What is the significance of this feature?

nice to have

I took a stab at this (haven't written any nvim extension code before) and hit on a few snags and ultimately ran out of time. The primary issue is that the number of lines before/after the cursor is stored in a global "context" as opposed to on a per-line basis. That refactor was a bit much for my very basic Lua skills and nvim knowledge 😓
