Research direction
Start by reproducing the behavior in Nemo: open the embedded terminal, then open a new Nemo instance and verify that the terminal is inherited. Trace the embedded terminal extension's instance-startup handling and determine what state is shared between instances. Done means new Nemo instances no longer open the embedded terminal automatically, while the existing terminal behavior remains intact.
