Describe the solution you'd like?
It would be great if it was possible to select a specific element of the path using double click

Example:
1. Paste path: `~/Downloads/movies/x.mp4`
2. Double click on "movies"
3. Only "movies" is selected, not the entire path
4. I change the folder to another one
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I am always frustrated when I have to change only part of my path and I have to perfectly click, remove part of it and paste

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by locating the terminal path-editing and selection behavior, then verify that double-clicking one path component selects only that component and allows it to be replaced without affecting the rest of the path.
