Feature Request: Option to hide tabs from Window menu on macOS #10182

Description

On macOS, the Window menu displays both windows and tabs. It would be helpful to have a configuration option to show only windows in this menu, hiding individual tabs.

Use Case

When working with multiple Ghostty windows (each for a different project/directory), the Window menu becomes cluttered with tabs, making it harder to quickly switch between windows. Some users prefer to organize their workflow by windows rather than tabs.

Proposed Solution

A configuration option like macos-window-menu-show-tabs = false (or similar) that would hide tabs from the Window menu while still allowing tabs to function normally within windows.

Environment

  • macOS
  • Ghostty 1.x
