From the perspective of "a regular user" (which is a bad term, because of course I see myself as the norm), I don't care if multiplexer is part of terminal app or not, but I do care about it reacting to my clicks. I don't want to learn obscure multi-step keyboard shortcuts in order to open a new tab, rename a tab, resize a pane, reorder tabs, copy the scrollback buffer, etc.

Sadly, that seems to leave me with only 2 options that work well over SSH:

- using a terminal with client-server model and built-in multiplexer (VSCode Remote SSH extension, WezTerm)

- using iTerm2 with tmux integration (apparently nothing else implements tmux control protocol https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/280829)
