@Tyriar I applied the reviews. Also, updated the tests (which I hadn't found them earlier because they were under workbench directory) to verify the correct function.

Sequence OSC 7; scheme://cwd ST

To make sure how this sequence should be handled, I've tested different cases on my workstation (details in the next comment), and found out these should hold for the terminal host to apply the sequence data:

• URL scheme must exist and be file://
• The hostname (as in file://hostname/...) is skipped and can be any value (even empty: file:///)
• A mere file:// is not valid (should at least be file:///)
• URL encoded characters (i.e, %xx sequences) are decoded to their unicode equivalent. Note that this means if you have both directories local" and local%22 (where %22 is the URI-encoded equivalent of the " character), the local" would be the interpretted CWD.

Seeing how OSC 7; scheme://cwd ST is handled

On my workstation (xterm-256color on Ubuntu 20.04 and gnome-terminal), I tested different scenarios to see how my terminal host (gnome-terminal) supports the OSC 7; scheme://cwd ST sequence. You can repeat these tests to verify the conclusions I've made in the previous comment.

To initiate the test, run:

sudo mkdir /test-root
sudo mkdir /test-root/local
sudo mkdir '/test-root/local"'
sudo mkdir '/test-root/local%22'

Now, to perform each test case:

• Open a fresh terminal instance
• Enter the test case code: echo ...
• Press Ctrl+Shift+T to open a new terminal tab (you can use your mouse too).
• Check if the newly opened terminal's working directory matches the test case's.

Test cases (one per line):

# Different hostname values:
echo -ne $'\e]7;file://\a'                                         # No hostname
echo -ne $'\e]7;file:///\a'                                        # Empty
echo -ne $'\e]7;file://test-root/local\a'                          # No hostname
echo -ne $'\e]7;file:///test-root/local\a'                         # Empty
echo -ne $'\e]7;file://local/test-root/local\a'                    # 'local'
echo -ne $'\e]7;file://localhost/test-root/local\a'                # 'localhost'
echo -ne $'\e]7;file://babak-laptop/test-root/local\a'             # Actual value
echo -ne $'\e]7;file://some-unknown-hostname/test-root/local\a'    # Unreal value

# URL encoded chars (`%xx`):
echo -ne $'\e]7;file:///test-root/local%22\a'
echo -ne $'\e]7;file:///test-root/local"\a'
echo -ne $'\e]7;file:///test-root/%6c%6f%63%61%6c\a'

# Different scheme values:
echo -ne $'\e]7;/test-root\a'
echo -ne $'\e]7;//test-root\a'
echo -ne $'\e]7;///test-root\a'
echo -ne $'\e]7;:///test-root\a'
echo -ne $'\e]7;http:///test-root\a'
echo -ne $'\e]7;ftp:///test-root\a'
echo -ne $'\e]7;ssh:///test-root\a'
