Add hot corners functionality to PowerToys #1305

@widersky

Description

@widersky

Summary of the new feature/enhancement

Operating systems such as macOS or some Linux distributions have hot corners option in their functionality. It would be great to have something like that in Windows. Although there are third party applications that provide such functionality (e.g. WinX Corners), they are sometimes limited.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

For example, you can set one of the default options:

  • Opening the task view
  • Opening the start menu
  • Opening of the action centre
  • Opening Cortana (?)
  • Opening the Alt-tab interface
  • Execution of own powershell / cmd command
