i've done this with mosh in past which gets you part of the way there.

problem is that it then doesn't work for local sessions. so you run it locally, which gives you local sessions and window management, but then all remote connections have to be via mosh -or- you mosh into the datacenter which is good for accessing infra, but leaves you having to run a separate instance for local work.

Agreed. In my case, all my "local" work is on my workstation via mosh, and my datacenter work is also done in that same tmux session. My laptop(s) are just thin clients for that work. That's great for the Chromebooks, but kind of a shame for in the case of a more capable laptop... For my workflow though, it works well.
