Description of the new feature/enhancement

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

### Tasks
- [ ] 1. Customizable UI :  Users often request the ability to customize the terminal's appearance, including themes, fonts, colors, and layout, to suit their preferences and improve readability.2. Tab Management: Enhanced tab management features such as the ability to rename tabs, drag and drop tabs to rearrange them, pin tabs, and create tab groups for better organization and workflow.  3. Split Panes: The ability to split the terminal window vertically or horizontally into multiple panes, allowing users to view and work with multiple sessions or commands simultaneously.  4. Quicker Navigation: Improved keyboard shortcuts for efficient navigation between tabs, panes, and commands, as well as quick access to recently used commands or directories.  5. Integration with Version Control: Seamless integration with popular version control systems (e.g., Git) to provide visual cues, branch status, and other helpful information within the terminal.  6. Search and Highlight: A built-in search functionality that allows users to search for text within the terminal output, with options to highlight matching results for easy identification.  7. Customizable Keybindings: The ability to define custom keybindings or modify existing ones to match personal preferences or emulate keybindings from other terminal applications.  8. Auto-Suggestions: Intelligent auto-suggestions that provide context-aware suggestions based on the user's command history or popular commands in the current working directory.  9. Enhanced Copy-Paste: Improved copy-paste functionality, including the ability to copy-paste without dismissing the selection, better handling of formatting, and support for copying and pasting files/directories.  10. Extension Ecosystem: The ability to extend the terminal's functionality through a rich ecosystem of extensions, similar to popular text editors, enabling users to add features, integrate with external tools, or customize their workflow.  Remember, these are just general ideas, and it's always good to provide specific details and use cases when submitting feature requests or ideas. This will help the development team understand your needs better and consider the feasibility of implementing the suggested features.

If I delete this entire template and go my own path, the core team may close my issue without further explanation or engagement. 2. If I list multiple bugs/concerns in this one issue, the core team may close my issue without further explanation or engagement. 3. If I write an issue that has many duplicates, the core team may close my issue without further explanation or engagement (and without necessarily spending time to find the exact duplicate ID number). 4. If I leave the title incomplete when filing the issue, the core team may close my issue without further explanation or engagement. 5. If I file something completely blank in the body, the core team may close my issue without further explanation or engagement. All good? Then proceed! --> # Description of the new feature/enhancement <!-- A clear and concise description of what the problem is that the new feature would solve.

This appears to be LLM bot spam. In the edit history of the comment, you can even still read this lol:

### Tasks
While I can't directly submit feature requests or ideas to Microsoft Terminal, I can provide you with some common feature requests and ideas that users often suggest for terminal applications. You can consider these suggestions and submit them through the appropriate channels provided by Microsoft.

If you're a human being, please don't generate content for GitHub with LLMs. We're all software engineers here.
