Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe the impact that the lack of the feature requested is creating.

We have a interactive Windows script that among other things loads a named AWS/Kubernetes profile. It then has access to the named AWS/Kubernetes cluster within that command terminal. From there we then trigger various programs and/or scripted processes.

headlamp.exe does not support being run multiple time and this prevents us for viewing multiple clusters via our setup.

Describe the solution you'd like

I would like the headlamp.exe to support the --new-window flag e.g. 'start "" cmd /c "%HEADLAMP_PATH% --new-window"'

What users will benefit from this feature?

Anyone needing to run the desktop application multiple times.

Are you able to implement this feature?

Happy to do testing.

Additional context

I also tried 'start "" /B "%HEADLAMP_PATH%"', but that did not work.
