Description of the new feature/enhancement

Icons on the Windows Taskbar often include key features in its right-click context menu, for example Windows Explorer shows you pinned and frequent folders. If Windows Terminal had the option to choose profiles from the context menu, without having to launch the app first, it would help the working environment very much.
