pi-umbra-inputbar
The input box with a ❯ prompt, the session name on its top border and a border colour you
pick. With several pi windows open, the name and the colour tell you which one you are in.

Session name
The name set with /name sits at the right end of the top border and shows
on the next repaint. When the border has no room for it, it is left out.
For extension authors
pi keeps one editor per session, so this package owns it. When Down is pressed with the
cursor already at the end of the text and no completion open, it emits editor:down-at-end on
pi.events. Listen for that instead of installing a second editor. A held key does not emit
it, so holding Down to the end of a long draft does not trigger anything.
