Not working native OSD on Tahoe.

Describe the solution you'd like

We know that showing native OSD is a fundamental issue and the framework does not provide functionality on Tahoe to control this, but what if we could just add an option to show the menu whenever we change the brightness/volume to open the menu for a second or two?

We could simply have an option to disable macOS display OSD (same as we have for volume now), like here

and add option to open this popup on volume/brightness change:

Describe alternatives you've considered

BetterDisplay

Anything else?
