Description
This is a followup of #2155
- [x] I verified I can reproduce this issue against https://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/4.38-I-builds/I20250929-1800/
## Steps to reproduce
From a fresh installation and clean workspace:
* Invoke "Show in local terminal" from two different nodes (folder-1 and folder-2) in Project Explorer
* This opens two tabs inside the Terminal View
* Open a new Workbench window by using the main menu: Window > New Window
* Invoke "Show in local terminal" from two forther nodes (folder-3 and folder-4) in Project Explorer
* This opens two tabs inside the Terminal View
* Restart Eclipse through the main menu: File > Restart
* Expected:
- The two terminals in Window 1 are restored showing folder-1 and folder-2 in a single Terminal view
- The two terminals in Window 2 are restored showing folder-3 and folder-4 in a single Terminal view
* Actual:
- The two terminals are restored only in the Window from which the File > Restart action was invoked
- No terminals are restored in the other window
## Here is some relevant log output

## Tested under this environment:
