development on aliases has been abandoned due to extreme complexity and high implications, focus is now shifting to adding more shorthands as keywords to more profiles instead

current issues

  • raycast rerenders the alias editor view every time the text entry value changes via user input
  • aliases require relaunching to take effect
  • using the escape key to exit the view is sometimes blocked by the text entry
  • presetting the text entry value results in more issues somehow
