Description

Would be nice to have some type of info message box that informs that the current terminal tab is paused.

Eg. KDE Konsole has this info box:

pause_info_box

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the terminal's pause mechanism and UI code to locate where to display a message box. Look at how KDE Konsole implements a similar feature for reference.
