x11-terms/kitty can do this since it added some shell integration features (requires bash, zsh, or fish and a rc file to be loaded which is done by default), aka you can click anywhere in the command and it'll place the cursor there. The shell integration bits can also do things like open the output of the last command in a pager even if haven't done e.g. "... | less" or instantly copy it for pasting without awkwardly scrolling to select everything. Has quite a vast amount of features and configuration options, albeit it may come as a bit quirky and with a learning curve if coming from konsole (e.g. it does not even have a context menu and can only be configured by editing the .conf file directly), and is mostly intended for use with various keyboard binds than with pretty menus. -- ionen
