Unable to right click and run as admin from taskbar

[kilasuit]

Description of the new feature

Terminal should allow you to right click on one of the shells and run that shell as admin, yet it does not currently, but does allow you to run terminal as admin

This may be a Windows issue with how tasks are populated on the jumplist.

Proposed technical implementation details

Unfortunately, Terminal cannot control the verbs that are offered on the application.

If you right-click the taskbar item and then right-click "Terminal", you should get a second menu:

Are you not getting that one?

I do get that however that unfortunately slows down the user into which shell they want to open as an admin due to it opening the default chosen shell. Which most of the time probably is the desired behaviour.

There is the Ctrl+Shift click on the shell that you want to open which will open it as an admin shell as a workaround though that isn't as nicely discoverable as having Run As Administrator show for each listed shell, which I hope that can be changed in future.

Hopefully that makes sense.
