So I have a terminal opened, now I wanted to open the terminal a new terminal in a new directory by right-clicking and selecting open in windows terminal.

Current behavior:
When I open a new directory and right-click to it, and select open in windows terminal it basically opens a new terminal in a new window.

Proposed behavior:
If I open a new directory and right-click to it, and select open in windows terminal, it should open it in a new tab.

Is this covered by #4472 ? I'm not really sure.

it seems I did not find the answer on the issue #4472 ... by the way, I am using the latest stable version. Is the feature in that issue is added to the stable version? or is it still on the preview version?
