Feature Idea: Spacebar preview / Quicklook of files (like macOS has it)

Apple's macOS has a great handy feature that can (quick) preview any file without the need to open the associated application by pressing the spacebar. There are some apps out there (see below) that add this feature to Windows 10 but it would be very cool if it could be included in PowerToys in an augmented/improved way.

Apps for Windows with this functionality

This would be terrific! In terms of speed and to make the transition between Mac to Windows easier!

I have been happily using ‪Paddy Xu‬'s QuickLook for years and consider it an essential part of my Windows workflow. It's open source, quite mature and available on GitHub. Perhaps it can be incorporated in the same manner as Wox has been utilized for PowerToys Run?
