Issue

This is a feature request. We should be able to create a tab running as administrator. This is different from #1752 which runs the entire application with elevated privilege. Author of that issue doesn’t seem interested in running only a tab as administrator, and that issue has been closed.

When implementing this, it may be useful to also consider working with #1147.

No files or tests are identified in the issue. Start by reviewing closed issue #1752 and related issue #1147, then locate the terminal tab creation entry point. Done means a single tab can run with administrator privileges without elevating the entire application.
