Description of the new feature/enhancement

I'm not sure if this is already possible but is it possible or can it be implemented that tabs are always used. I have it set so the terminal opens in Powershell 7 as admin but if I am in command prompt and want to open a new tab it always opens in a new window. I have tried playing with a number of settings but haven't been successful in making it always open in a new tab no matter what.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)
