[UX] Improve the experience of the "Abilities" page #85

Description

This is more of a question / discussion point about some of the abilities in the Abilities page:

Is the purpose of this page to showcase the abilities or to actually execute a specific task? For example, in this page there is the Activate plugin ability. This ability expects an input, like the plugin name, however:

  1. User is not prompted to specify a parameter unless they specifically specify it upfront by clicking the Show paramters link
  2. When you click Execute there is "no visual response" to the user" because the output is shown at the top, which is not always visible to the user, depending on the screen size.
  3. In this case, the execution fails:

We can improve this by doing the following:

  1. If the user executes an ability that does not require any further inputs, like List users, the user should be redirected to the Chat view to see the output.
  2. If the user executes an ability that requires input and they did not specify an input, the user should be prompted to specify the input, and then the ability should execute in the chat window.
