Description

Hello, as mentioned in issue 1330, would it be possible to add a new feature that would allow switching between mouse_mode enabled/disabled in live ? Maybe like the scroll mode but with another keybinding (CTRL + m), without having to change the config.yml every time ? That would be great, thanks !

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate Zellij's input handling and configuration system to add a keybinding (e.g., Ctrl+m) that toggles the mouse mode. Look at how existing mode switches (like scroll mode) are implemented and replicate the pattern.
