Feature request: user-defined block titles / nicknames (separate from session spec)

[jcfischer-2hr]

Hi Wave team,

I'm using Wave Terminal on Windows 11 Pro (local sessions on JC-WorkLaptop\J.C. Fischer). Each terminal block shows a blockID<…> in the header. When I click it, it becomes editable, but if I change it to a custom label, the terminal disconnects from the session.

From the behavior, it seems this field is the actual connection/session spec, not just a display name, so editing it causes a reconnect attempt and failure.

Feature request:

Could you add a separate, user-editable block title / nickname field that:

• Appears in the block header (instead of or in addition to blockID<…>),
• Is purely cosmetic and does not affect the session spec/connection,
• Can be renamed via double-click or a "Rename Block" menu item?

This would make it much easier to distinguish multiple local terminals (e.g., "Build", "Logs", "Experiments") without risking a disconnect.

Thanks for considering it!

+1 would love to be able to edit block title, preferably with wsh support
