- Research direction
- Investigate how Zellij currently handles tab naming. Look at the plugin system (e.g., zellij tile or similar) to see if tab names can be dynamically set. The issue references 'running command' which may be obtained from the pane's active process. Check the codebase for existing tab name configuration, possibly in the UI layer or configuration files. Review comments in the issue for any prior discussion or rejected approaches.
