Persistent sessions

[vangberg]

Executive Summary

The issue proposes persisting kernel sessions across file switches to avoid unnecessary kernel restarts when navigating between multiple files (1). The author explicitly rejects a tab-based interface and seeks alternative UI approaches for displaying active kernels/sessions (1). No technical implementation details or community feedback have been provided yet.

Key Technical Points

• Kernel sessions should persist when switching between files to maintain state across navigation (1).
• A mechanism to visualize active kernels/sessions is required (1).
• Tab-based UI explicitly excluded as a solution (1).

Action Items

• Solicit UI/UX proposals for displaying active sessions without tabs (1).
• Define kernel lifecycle management strategy (when to terminate idle sessions).
• Implement session-to-file mapping and persistence logic.

Persist kernel sessions when changing files. I often jump back and forth between multiple files, no need to kill the kernel. We would need a way to show active kernels/sessions. I don't want a tab interface. Ideas?
