Thanks for the feedback! Mitchell Hashimoto is awesome. Have a PR for fixing devtools here: https://github.com/manaflow-ai/cmux/pull/117

> hotkey overrides - I have some things explicitly unmapped / remapped in my ghostty config that conflict with some cmux keybindings and weren't respected

We need to be better about this; right now you can modify keyboard shorcuts with cmd+, in the GUI. Planning on making it a config file in the spirit of ghostty though, not sure if we want to reuse ghostty's config file though since it might become a maintenance burden for them...

yes

> cmd-z to "zoom in" to a pane is enormously useful imo

Thinking of the right way to design this. Like hypothetically we can expand it, but what happens if you make a vertical/horizontal split, or cmd+t to make a new tab? I guess we could just "merge" it back into the original space which would be pretty cool.

IMO (re zoom behavior): if you make a new tab, it should add a new tab as normal and stay zoomed in. the tab bar (of the currently zoomed in panel) would still be at the top while zoomed in, and workspaces still appear to the side

if you make a new split (or navigate splits), it would zoom you back out (contract the panel) and just split/navigate the way it normally would
