 There is no default close-pane binding. Option must send Alt/Meta in the terminal; on macOS, configure the terminal's Option-key behavior if it instead produces special characters. These bindings do not replace existing Ctrl+j or uppercase motion/edit bindings.

+Pane-focus bindings also work while the ordinary file explorer or picker has focus. Moving to a neighboring pane returns keyboard focus to its document; a floating picker closes, while a docked explorer remains visible. Explicit `tree` or `selection` navigation overrides and disabled keys take precedence over pane-focus bindings.

 Diff comparisons reuse the split geometry and directional-focus engine. Option/Alt navigation moves between Before, After, and Files first, then to a neighboring workspace pane when there is no internal target in that direction. Splitting a diff text view creates an ordinary sibling showing the same buffer; historical snapshots remain read-only, including after the comparison closes.
