Issue-Feature Complex enough to require an in depth planning process and actual budgeted, scheduled work. Needs-Attention The core contributors need to come back around and look at this ASAP. Needs-Tag-Fix Doesn't match tag requirements Needs-Triage It's a new issue that the core contributor team needs to triage at the next triage meeting

Description of the new feature/enhancement

A simple option to reload configuration variables (e.g. PATH), or to restart the window. It can save us a few clicks if we can refresh the terminal when installing a new app, for example, from Winget. The issue is that when installing new apps, the PATH is not updated for the application so refreshing the environment variables could be useful.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

Add a command in the palette for restarting the window, and add a command for refreshing the environment variables so that newly installed binaries work directly.

#1125 Seems like it'd be more straightforward - just reload the env vars for new tabs, etc.

There's also #3726, which is per pane (not per-window), but is probably good enough here, yea/?

Yeah both of them are good enough. As long as they are on the command palette as well! I'll close this as not adding to the other issues.
