This might sound outright heretical and it
probably is, still ... would it be possible to be able to use the
mouse to position the cursor within a command line? Since most
everything is now mouse-capable, out of habit I often find myself
clicking on a recalled zsh command line to position the cursor.
Of course it doesn't work, but *could* it work? I'd expect it to
be viewed as a silly luxury even if it was doable, but I'll
mention the idea anyway. If that kind of thinking was acceptable
one might even contemplate various other mousey things, like maybe
the scroll wheel activating command recall or being able to
dedicate left and right clicks to assigned widgets or commands ...
could get interesting.
