This sounds like looking into screen's feature to have a persistent
status bar at the bottom. 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.
