Research direction

No source file, test, or entry point is named. First reproduce the right-click behavior in a non-en-US environment for the blank area of a directory, including Shift+right-click, then inspect the Windows Terminal context-menu and registry integration; done means wt opens from those directory contexts as it does from the desktop and folder.
