Zen mode is in! I love you guys, thanks for that, been looking forward to it! However, everything tends to hang to the left super heavily, which is not so fun in large monitors. Although I bet it works great on a vertical setup:

I would love it if there were a way to add some left padding of sorts. For now I just turned off the Fullscreen option, changed the background color of my Desktop to match VS Code, and that works to some degree:

How other people are doing it:

I think the most intuitive solution would be to let the user specify a desired width, in characters. So if I set 100 (that's how long my codes lines are before I wrap them) as my Zen width, it will adjust the padding so that a 100-character line effectively becomes centered at all times.
