Description
Better defaults, less verbosity:
- Default focus behavior: (Argument: Normally being first means top priority)
- Focus the first window
- Focus the first pane in every window
- Change
suppress_historydefault tofalse(Argument: More common to re-use a command after CTRL+C for example, suppress should be the exception) - Allow
nameinstead (or as-well) aswindow_name(Argument: We're already in thewindowscollection) - Allow
shellinstead (or as-well) asshell_command(Argument: Verbose, two words)

Research direction
The issue names configuration defaults and aliases but no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the configuration parsing and session-generation code for focus, suppress_history, window_name, and shell_command; done means the proposed defaults and shorter names work while the shown configuration remains representable.
