Description
[Suggestion / Feature] Persistent model picker with per-chat model memory in chat.z.ai
Verified demand: ~478 messages discuss switching models or wishing to stay on a specific model. Users frequently want to switch models mid-session and keep prior context, and to have each chat remember which model it was using.
Proposal:
- A persistent model selector that lets users switch models without losing conversation history (extends issue #122 — switch model mid-conversation).
- Per-chat model memory: each conversation remembers its model so reopening it resumes on the same one.
Why this matters: During GLM-5.2 saturation (issue #142), users who switch to GLM-5.1 expect that choice to stick — today it can fall back silently. Persistent selection makes model choice explicit and trustworthy.

Research direction
Review issue #122 for the existing model-switching context and issue #142 for the saturation fallback behavior. Confirm how chat.z.ai currently selects models and stores conversation state; done means users can switch models without losing history and reopening a chat restores its selected model.
