Description

# Description of the new feature/enhancement

I just learned that you can Ctrl+Click a profile to start it as admin.
It would be nice if this would be shown somehow, for example by prefixing the profile name with the shield that is shown in the admin terminal corner or similar when Ctrl+Hovering a profile, so that you know exactly what will happen if you click.

Research direction

Start by tracing the profile Ctrl+hover interaction and the existing shield shown in the admin terminal corner. Done means the hovered profile clearly indicates that clicking it will start the profile as administrator.
