Description
it would be very nice to have a admin ui app for WSL2 distros, something that will allow to start/stop/terminate/export/import specific distros, set them as default, configure to start them based on a user etc..
as well as something ui access to wsl global configs (such as mounts)
basically anything that wsl command line allows
Describe alternatives you've considered
i've searched for other projects but only found wsl-manager

Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reviewing the WSL command-line operations it lists—starting, stopping, terminating, importing, exporting, defaults, per-user startup, and global configuration—to determine the scope. Done would require a defined UI covering the agreed subset of those operations.
