Its dialog has always included an 'Other' row where you can type your own answer. The dialog now accepts a `hideOtherRow` setting.\n\n- When `hideOtherRow` is set, the 'Other' free-text row is left out.\n\n- The remaining options are renumbered to fill the gap, including the 'Chat about this' option.\n\n- Pasting is turned off for that view.\n\n- `hideOtherRow` is set when the question is an engine-confirm prompt (`isEngineConfirm`) and comes from one particular source.\n\n**Why**\n\nSome confirmation questions will now only let you pick one of the listed choices, with no way to type a different answer. If an option you expected is missing, this is why.\n\n- Area: Terminal UI\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
