The chr terminal editor is inspired by the turbo pascal editor using Turbo Vision from the year 1997. For the keyboard shortcut he should be similar gedit, to facilitate the transition from desktop to console editor.

Similar to how CTRL+A works across most of the programs I use, I would expect it to select all text in the currently focused text field.

Yes, the ZInputBox widget is currently missing selection support. I've opened tuiwidgets/tuiwidgets#3 for tracking the needed work in tui widgets. Likely this only works well if also tuiwidgets/tuiwidgets#4 is implemented.
