Description

## Problem

I want to have a few `/dev` tabs open, let's call it three

Every time i want a new `/dev` tab, i need to click the **+** which is a new `chat`, where i need to type `/dev` to invoke a new `/dev` tab

## Expected behavior

> [!TIP]
> It would be super awesome if the **+** could open a selector for type of tab i want to open

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the Amazon Q chat tab UI and its **+** action, then trace how a new chat is opened; done means the action offers a selector and opens the selected chat type, including repeated `/dev` tabs.
