Description of the new feature/enhancement

I am using version 1.12 and the window restoration feature is great. But I find it only memorizes the number of panes or tabs you opened last time. It would be better if it can also restore:

  • The name of the tabs. (I often open a tab for the server running and another for git commands. So I rename the tab to make it clear.)
  • The working directory of each tab or pane.

Thanks! 😸

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

For the name of tabs, that can be added to the list in #9800. Right now the terminal saves the tab title attached to a pane (from using the tabTitle argument on creation), but I missed the one that can be set otherwise at runtime.

For the working directory, if you have configured your shell to use the OSC 9;9 code to tell the terminal what your directory is, it will save that currently. MicrosoftDocs/terminal#449 has documentation for how to add that.

Persist Runtime TabTitle and Maximize/Focus/Fullscreen states (#12073)
acbfb30 
This commit adds additional information to the persisted window layouts.
- Runtime tab titles
- Focus, Maximized, and Fullscreen modes.

Also,
- Adds actions for Set{Focus,FullScreen} that take a boolean
  to work in addition to the current Toggle{Focus, Fullscreen} actions.
- Adds SetMaximized that takes a boolean.
  This adds the capability to maximize (resp restore) a window using
  standard terminal actions.
  This also involves hooking up a good amount of state tracking between
  the terminal page and the window to see when maximize state has changed
  so that it can be persisted.
- These actions are not added to the default settings, but they could be.
  The intention is that they could assist with automation (and was originally)
  how I planned on persisting the state instead of augmenting the LaunchMode.
- The fullscreen/maximized saving isn't perfect because we don't have a
  way to save the non-maximized/fullscreen size, so exiting the modes
  won't restore whatever the previous size was.
