Describe the solution you'd like?

Hey, I couldn't find a similar issue, maybe I've missed it.

My current workflow in iTerm2 + tmux that I cannot reproduce with Warp are:
- Entering copy-mode manually (`prefix` + `[`), navigating using keyboard, marking wanted text and yanking it to clipboard
- Finding (`prefix` + `/`) some text, marking the substring, click 'n' or 'N' until I find the correct place in buffer, marking around it as needed and yanking it into clipboard.

For me personally this flow is so important that it is the only thing that prevents me from fully switching over to Warp.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

It may be only a personal pet peeve but using the mouse/trackpad is very awkward and uncomfortable, I'm used to using the above keyboard shortcuts. I believe this can be a great UX improvement.

Searched for a while specifically for this. When I'm in the terminal, I prefer to not be required to switch to mouse/keypad.

Would be nice if we can just use vim keybinding to navigate / select / yank in the block text.

+1 for this. tmux, byobu, screen; all have such features.

+1. I currently use kitty for a single reason: it has a plugin for selecting terminal text with the keyboard.

Which plugin are you using? @cayhorstmann
