      Requested by @littlefyr on Twitter, he'd like the ability to have prompts come up for parameters when a Custom Action is invoked, for cases where the parameters may vary per invocation.

      He suggested quite a complex format for this including types, option lists and ranges but I think that's a bit overkill, and a simpler name/value association would work fine. So something like "$prompt(<name>)" where the dialog includes '<name>' as the parameter label.

            Custom actions are borderline useless without this. Please get it implemented.

            I'd really like to see this one implemented. It would be a major asset in bridging between GUI and command-line – we'd be able to turn simple command-line actions into established GUI actions, so when my team needs some slightly-different action available in their everyday workflow, they can have it available (without needing to switch over to the command line).

            I need this to create a custom action that does e.g.

            git checkout -b [USERINPUT] branch-to-start-at

            I also would need to set a name for a branch (to start a bugfix branch, since it isn't included in the git-flow actions)
