Description
Hello,
This terminal is excellent and I would like to propose a suggeestion.
In full screen mode there doesn't seem to be a way to switch or add tabs easily. Perhaps mouse movement could popout from the edge of the screen the tabs and a way to switch between them.
I ultimately would just like to leave this up fullscreen on one of my monitors.

Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points; begin by locating fullscreen and tab-bar handling in the Windows Terminal UI. Done means that moving the pointer to the top edge in fullscreen reveals controls for switching and adding tabs.
