Good afternoon! Please add a status bar like in tmux. In which you could add your scripts like in tmux. The location at the bottom of the window, translucency, the output of many different data that I want to display myself through scripts. Ready to sponsor the addition of this feature.

If tmux has the feature already, can this just be done by starting new tabs with tmux? What would you want out of this that tabs running tmux in guake wouldn't be able to provide?

tmux can do it all, but it makes no sense to use it for just this one function + the biggest disadvantage of tmux is scrolling! It is not possible to use guake scrolling using tmux. In this case, the terminal output is overwritten (a known issue) and I advise everyone to use tmux scrolling. For this reason, I kindly ask you to add such functionality to this excellent terminal. Ready to fund it if you write a bitcoin wallet here. I would really like this functionality.

I do not typically use tmux as a default shell. Adding tmux-style functionality may harm other enthusiasts who do not use that type of shell, so maybe I would like to see that feature added as opt-in in the settings menu?
