We'd love to (and, tbh, likely will).

Search had been a blocker, but that's coming soon; beyond that not sure that there's any reason other than inertia. Alacritty is totally fine, but excited for the Ghostty focus on performance (obviously), and the font rendering stuff looks excellent (though TBD how much of that we can "just use" vs needing to copy-pasta)

They could certainly compile Ghostty and link into it from Rust. I couldn't imagine it'd be that large of an undertaking.

i switched from alacritty -> ghostty, and occasionally use zed.

i can't recall why i made the transition (maybe just to try it out, and it became default?). i can't think of any practical consequences of this transition.

why do you care about whether zed uses alacritty or ghostty under the hood?
