Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. With the current broadcast mechanism, if the terminal looses focus, broadcasting is stopped when regaining focus.

Describe the solution you'd like It'd be fantastic if broadcasting is kept when focus is lost.

Describe alternatives you've considered Maybe there could be a setting option to have a "sticky" broadcasting functionality.

I agree. I switched from MobaXTerm, and the broadcast feature was the only reason I switched to Tabby. MobaXTerm had it as well but it worked in a different way - you would not automatically stop being in "Multi-Exec" mode.

A setting to control the behavior for broadcasting to the selected pane would be great - and also a setting for the behavior when broadcasting to all tabs.

MobaXTerm also had the option to exclude certain sessions from broadcasting - that would be neat as well, although I can live without.
