The functionality to turn on or off a display from the widget

Additional context

I frequently have my setup left powered on when AFK or sleep. Each time, I manually edit the Niri configuration file to turn off 2/3 of the displays to save power. It would be a game changer if I could turn off or on the monitor's from the widget.
