hard to get around not using the mouse eventually when looking up docs or copy pasting from browser

Yes, that’s a pain point I haven’t quite cracked.

Copy-paste within tmux works just fine with (a) set -g mouse on in ~/.tmux.conf (b) mouse select to copy and (c) Ctrl + B ] to paste.

Copy-paste from tmux to Windows or vice versa is a pain.

I haven’t tried all the terminals yet but what I need is an iTerm2 [1] for Windows.

Unfortunately. But that's what VI keybindings for the browser are for!
I personally don't mind using the mouse here and there in vim.
