#5 — Percentage labels could be confusing

The width : height format shows global percentages like 50% : 100% or 25% : 50%. Two concerns:

  1. There's no indication which number is width vs height — users might misread it, especially for vertical splits where the "width" stays 100%.
  2. For deeply nested splits, values like 12% : 33% are technically correct but not intuitive.

Consider adding labels (W: 50% H: 100%) or only showing the dimension that the current split orientation controls (since the other is always inherited from the parent).

Changed format from 50% : 100% to W:50% H:100% with dedicated .dim-label styling (smaller font, lower opacity) so labels are subtle but clear. Verified on nested splits — shows W:13% H:100% correctly for a pane inside a 25%/50% hierarchy.
