1~3 main use cases of the proposed feature
When renaming a page from the sidebar a big popup that blurs the rest of the app comes up with the prompt to rename. I would prefer if instead of the popup, the page name itself in the sidebar became a text input to change the name there. In addition, when renaming a root page, I have to right click on the name to get the context menu, but when renaming a nested page, I have to use the double dots on the right. I would prefer if I had the option to right click on the name of the nested page to get the context menu as well as the double dots.

What types of users can benefit from using your proposed feature
Users that prefer a simple and unified experience without having to guess how to rename something.
