When Windows Terminal is installed on Windows 10, according to UWP package setting: https://github.com/microsoft/Terminal/blob/e37ba7a923427c9a874a6d5bdc27c80fe59db83c/src/cascadia/CascadiaPackage/Package.appxmanifest#L51
A ReparsePoint of type IO_REPARSE_TAG_APPEXECLINK is created in path %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\WindowsApps\wt.exe to start Windows Terminal. This is great, however, wt.exe should support richer command line arguments to enable third-party applications to open specific terminals.
