Description of the new feature/enhancement

We already ship Alt+Click to split a new pane of a profile from the dropdown menu. Now that we have the newWindow action, it would be cool if we allowed Shift+Click to open a new window of a profile from the dropdown menu.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

Should and could the same modifier keys apply to the jump list and the shell extension as well?
