It might seem we would want something like this. What annoys me often, for example, is that when I switch branches in one directory it is reflected in another terminal only after the prompt is re-drawn, e.g. on "Enter" or the next command. I still find the project under-specified and too open ended. I'm missing a draft of what, how, and when.
