additional payload (to reduce problems with lifetime of objects) and are
delivered to one or more event sinks. This is more powerful and reduces the
complex dependencies between control mode and hooks. Events are now used for
hooks, control mode notifications and for monitors (set-hook -B).
wait-for can now wait for an event to fire (-E flag, with -F to for filter),
with -v to print the payload, as well as listing (-l) waiting clients on an
event and forcing one to wake (-w).
A few additional hooks are also now available (pane-created, pane-resized, etc)
and some of the existing ones have additional format variables available.
("tiled panes") like popups but unlike popups are not modal and behave
like panes (so the same escape sequence support). Floating panes are
created with the "new-pane" command, bound to * by default.
Currently floating panes can only be moved and resized using the mouse.
The default second status line (if "status-format" is set to 2) has
changed to show a list of panes.
This is the first step and many obvious features are not yet complete
(notably the ability to swap floating panes, resize them using
resize-pane, change them between floating and tiles, and restore custom
layouts with floating panes).

it will have minor differences for floating panes in future. Also add
-R/-s/-S/-k/-m flags to control border and style and behaviour, like
popups. GitHub issue 5027 from Dane Jensen.
- Syncing between the usage string in code and in the man page.
- Adding optional arguments that were not mentioned (such as
shell-command arguments).
- Adding square brackets around arguments that are actually optional.

client and allows it to be changed independently from the real active
pane stored in the window. This is can be used with session groups which
allow an independent current window (although it would be nice to have a
flag for this too and remove session groups). The client active pane is
only really useful interactively, many things (hooks, window-style,
zooming) still use the window active pane.
flag -e to new-window, split-window, respawn-window, respawn-pane to
