Winbar selector

[lucobellic]

Hello.

Could it be feasible to add winbar as selector similar to neo-tree source selector?

In order to get multiple edgebar at the same position. Such as it might be possible to write something similar to this:

left = {
  {
    winbar_title = "Neo-tree",
    {  "neo-tree"  },
  },
  {
    winbar_title = "Search",
    {  "spectre_panel",   "Outline"  },
  },
}

Not sure if it could be easily added, but I feel that having both edgebar with winbar selector would be a killer feature.

Edit: added video demonstration of what could be done (from edgy-group.nvim):

I made a thing:

I would love if this was just built in to edgy, though.

One of the biggest issues I've come across with my plugin is things like trouble.nvim rely on the window ID it was opened with. I ended up forking trouble specifically to add a way to set the window ID, but it's hacky af and sometimes breaks in weird ways, so I wouldn't recommend using the fork.

Edit to above: It appears that I've resolved the issue I was having with trouble.nvim.

The plugin stemmed from this same idea you bring up + using vertical windows in edgy being a pain to do things like auto-resize (and doing so just kinda felt meh to use)

Thanks for sharing your plugin, it decided me to put my personal configuration in a plugin.
edgy-group.nvim (for personal use and demonstration only)

It create groups of windows within edgebar by title and allow to close or open them with keymaps and commands.

I decided to use bufferline custom_areas to create icons for the selected groups instead of integrating it directly into edgy.
The plugin has a lot of limitations but perfectly fits my personal needs if anyone is interested.

Neat! Didn't even know that was a part of bufferline. Gunna look in to it. Thanks!
