Description

Upon starting the program, I thought my UIs weren't loading at all. I believe this to be a UX issue, and it made me hesitant to switch until I found out what the problem was.

RC8 Win10

Research direction

No source file or test is named. Reproduce the startup behavior described on RC8/Windows 10, then trace how embedded plugin UIs are initialized and whether their default visibility is controlled there. Done means the expected UI visibility is clear and the reported startup experience no longer occurs.
