Yes, I agree. Ghostty et al don't open-on-click, but on hover they'll show you the URL and there's a keyboard shortcut + click to open. This is much better UX than disabling OSC8.

The sensible default is to have it turned off. And by the looks of it Ghostty versions before this you couldn't even turn it off.
