Features:

* Terminal tab titles can be edited.
* Double click selecting words now accepts a wider range of characters. [issue 178](https://github.com/sedwards2009/extraterm/issues/178)
* An initial current directory can be specified for sessions. [issue 184](https://github.com/sedwards2009/extraterm/issues/184)

* Ctrl+Left and Ctrl+Right keys now work in Tmux and Screen. [issue 176](https://github.com/sedwards2009/extraterm/issues/176)
* Cmd+C and Cmd+V now work in macOS for text inputs in the UI. [issue 185](https://github.com/sedwards2009/extraterm/issues/185)
