Ya, I would like to checkout Copilot Chat. Last time I checked it was waitlisted though.
My open source tool aider allows you to just ask for a change, without pointing it at a specific chunk of your code. It can handle changes that require multiple edits across multiple files. Ideally you just run aider inside your git repo and start asking for changes. Sometimes it helps to tell it which files to pay attention to.
Here's some example chat session transcripts that give a sense of what it's like to code this way:
