In v 1.0.1 build 8696 on MacOS and running zellij v 0.41.2, option-shift-, and option-shift-. output esc+, and esc+. You can test this easily under most shells by typing ctrl-v option-< and it will print "^[,". Outside of zellij, and in zellij running under wezterm or Terminal.app, it prints "^[<". Another way to see this is to start emacs and type ctrl-h k option-shift-, which will show the keybinding for M-, and not M-<.
This is important for emacs as M-< and M-> are used for beginning-of-buffer and end-of-buffer.
This is different from other discussions regarding alt on macos and zellij as they are concerned with default bindings for alt-left and alt-right. I have macos-option-as-alt set to true, which shouldn't matter because I am using the U.S. keyboard layout where it is the default. Changing TERM to xterm-256color before running zellij does not make a difference.
