State: closed
Merged: Yes


Summary of the Pull Request

We don't want it acting as the "most recent window" for windowing behavior.
The most recent window should always be some other window.

This is being made as an atomic commit because we're probably 50% sure on this
one. Maybe people do want new tabs to open up in the quake window! If they're
running from the commandline, that's easy. If they're running from the shell
context menu, that's Hard / impossible currently. $20 someone asks for
that if we ship this. That of course might just fall into "explorer context
menu settings" though.
