Describe the question

Either there is something wrong or missing with my configuration, or the way the zoxide plugin behaves is suboptimal.

When I use the shortcut to invoke the zoxide plugin, the yazi UI disappears and I am at the terminal just after the yazi invocation, with no prompt. If I enter a partial path that zoxide knows about, yazi resumes with the CWD set to the appropriate target location; if I enter a path that zoxide apparently doesn't know about, yazi resumes in the CWD where it was before I called zoxide. In either case, my entry is not visible when I am typing it.

Several other file managers support zoxide in a way that is like the display at a terminal command prompt, as assisted by fzf. Is there a way to make yazi do that?

Anything else?
