Currently when I open a new terminal tab by pressing '+' or by selecting from dropdown, it opens new terminal tab with regular user permissions, however, there are many situations where I need to run the command in PowerShell or Command Prompt as Administrator, please add an option to run these as Administrator in the menu or in similar way.

Thank you
