Thanks for the offer of help! I think we're trying pretty hard ad the moment to not add additional UI elements to the New Tab flyout we already have. It's really the only UI we have at the moment, but it's a slippery slope towards having just every button in that single UI, and all of a sudden it's a cluttered mess like this:

Hopefully once #3789 lands (in 1.1), then we'll be able to add menu entries to the right-click menu on a tab, and I think that's probably a better place to put something like this.

Then there's also #3337 for adding a context menu to the terminal controls themselves, which would also be an appropriate place for this

Then of course, there's always #5400, which is another possible place.

I'm going to leave this open as a potential follow-up task of either #3337 or #3789

Alright, we'll talk about it when context menu is introduced.

Is that Microsoft saying that their own products are a mess? Lol

It would not be wise to take the opinion of one person at a company with multiple tens of thousands of employees as representative of the entire company.

In regards to the above discussion, has it been determined whether or not this is something that is wanted?

Honestly, I don't remember. I thought I closed this because eventually we were going to make it possible for users to add this on their own. I don't remember why I tagged this easy starter...

...

Okay, now I'm remembering. We thought it was a fine idea for someone to add to the tab context menu

And that should be relatively easy to do.
