It would be very helpful to be able to interact with youtube-music via the command line. For instance:

youtube-music play # Start playing whatever the current song is
youtube-music paused # Stop playing whatever the current song is
youtube-music toggle # Swap between playing and pausing
youtube-music next # Go to the next song
youtube-music prev # Go to the previous song
youtube-music info # Information on currently playing song, title, artist, length, position, etc...

This will be particularly useful for DM's like I3 and Sway, as it means we can control youtube-music via keystrokes, for instance win+space might run youtube-music toggle and allow me to start / stop the song. I'd also be able to integrate youtube-music into waybar / i3-bar, allowing me to see the current playing song in my header bar.

Will be possible after #946 which adds a protocol handler

youtubemusic://pause

More commands should be added later

Also should be possible through MPRIS right?

We should really have a list of known issues/features-requests
