What

A background session's name now records a third origin, collision, alongside user-chosen and derived. Names given for this reason are treated like user-chosen ones when a session respawns, so the --name/-n flag is preserved rather than dropped, and the session list displays them differently.

Evidence

nameSource === "collision"

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
