Exploding line into segments using QGIS

Question

Is there a command to explode a line feature (with many segments) into its segments?

Like this:

I have seen this: Splitting all lines in layer at vertices using QGIS

But, I was looking for something similar that keeps everything in the same layer while editing it and does it only for the selected feature(s) not all elements. I am thinking in a simple command that takes the selected featured(s) and produces the desired output like the Split Parts or Split Features in the Advanced Digitizing Toolbar.

The tool therefore is called "Explode lines" and can be found in the Processing Toolbox (Ctrl+Shift+T) in Vector geometry tools. It takes all lines and breaks them into its segments into a new layer.

In order to get a new number for each segment an update can be performed on the "id" field in the Field Calculator using @row_number.
