Research direction

Start by reviewing the related issue #516 and the linked Python dataclasses and Pydantic documentation. Clarify the preferred approach and scope before locating the option definitions; the work is done when the four typed structures and combined Option have agreed alias and description behavior.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Can be dataclass.

  • ServerOption
  • SessionOption
  • WindowOption
  • PaneOption
  • Option = ServerOption + SessionOption + WindowOption + PaneOption

Consider pydantic, for its field's:

  • alias: for marshalling automatic-rename to automatic_rename
  • description: for documenting option purpose
