Cancelling causes context loss

If the model decides to for instance run something that opens with $editor or tail -f or in general enter something interactive we either have to try to escape out with multiple escapes or worse do the spam ctrl c and go back with opencode -c.

My feeling is that before it could include the "cancelled out" context. For instance the log output that was displayed on the screen during the tail session or similar.

Now if I cancel out and re-send the last message it seems that the previous message/response is totally ignored.

Check end of https://opencode.ai/s/1CJMP6HC to see what I mean.
