[FEATURE]: The UX of entering a second prompt needs to be fixed - why does it immediately send the prompt when pressing enter instead of queuing it

Feature hasn't been suggested before.

I have verified this feature I'm about to request hasn't been suggested before.

Describe the enhancement you want to request

If you have a look at the way cursor does it, it lines up the next prompt to go for when the previous one finishes, theres even an edit button. Even the UX of editing a previous prompt and starting from fresh leaves something to be desired. Things like todo remain and the entire UX looks super confusing because of this. Can't we just replicate the way cursor handles the entire prompt, agent and text input sidebar perfectly?
