There's zoom mode, which is really good if you use a lot of splits - you
can do {prefix}z to zoom one pane up to full screen, then {prefix}z to
unzoom it again.
Also there's text reflowing now (which screen has had for ages) - if you
resize a pane then the text inside it will reflow properly. This makes
zooming much more useful!
Also mouse support is improved - there used to be an issue (at least for
me) where scrolling up a buffer worked fine, but scrolling back down would
jump to the bottom after a few clicks of the mouse wheel; but now it works
how you'd expect. (Yes, I do use the mouse for some things, sometimes!)
(Theres more changes too, but these are the ones that stuck out for me.)
