Description of the new feature/enhancement
I'm aware that as of now, by setting
experimental.repositionCursorWithMouse
astrue
, we are able to move the cursor to the mouse's position with a simple left click. However, there are times when I want to simply click on the terminal to get it into focus without moving the cursor around. Hence, I think it would be best to let the user choose what keys would be best for them to utilize this feature, for eg. Alt+Left Click/Ctrl+Left Click/Middle Click.Proposed technical implementation details (optional)
I'm aware that mouse key bindings are currently not available yet as explained in #1553. However, once they are available, I'd really love it if we can have a command such as
moveCursorWithMouse
and not justexperimental.repositionCursorWithMouse
as a profile setting just like how we haveshowContextMenu
as a command that can be mapped to a key binding and not just the profile settingexperimental.rightClickContextMenu
.So maybe we could have something like this in the future:
