Research direction
Investigate the terminal tab hover behavior in the VS Code source code. Locate the CSS or component responsible for hover effects on terminal tabs (likely in 'src/vs/workbench/contrib/terminal' or similar). Check if there is an existing setting to disable hover. Consider adding a new setting like 'terminal.hover.enabled' and implement toggle logic. Reference any related issues or comments for additional context.
