Description
### Description of the new feature / enhancement
The current behaviour resets the default shown network device to their own priority / random assumption.
Instead make it configurable to a specific logged network / device.
### Scenario when this would be used?
After boot up, we instantly log the right device to the Dock instead of switching between devices especially if they're not in use
### Supporting information
_No response_
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start at the Command Palette Dock implementation and trace how the default network device is currently selected after boot. Determine where a specific monitored device could be configured and persisted, then verify that the Dock opens on that device without switching among unused devices.
