Description

Would it be possible to have equivalents of moveTabToNewWindow, createTab, Vomnibar.activateInNewTab as incognito windows ? That would really be useful. Thanks for the amazing extension !

Inspiration from: <https://github.com/vitorgalvao/alfred-workflows/tree/master/IncognitoClone>

Research direction

Start by locating the existing moveTabToNewWindow, createTab, and Vomnibar.activateInNewTab entry points and trace how they create or move normal tabs. Determine how equivalent incognito-window behavior should work across those commands, then verify that each requested incognito operation works without changing normal-tab behavior.
