Nice one! Now, can we get a terminal with tabs? Will that be a thing with the new windows tabbing approach?

I don't sit within the console host team, but I do work very closely with them and their PM Rich Turner is very active on Twitter (@richturn_ms). They're tracking the (very popular) request for tabs at https://wpdev.uservoice.com/forums/266908-command-prompt-con...
Thanks for the link.
It says "ON THE BACKLOG" since October 01, 2014. You have a pretty long backlog, if you didnt implement the second top voted request in three years, out of backlog ;-)
Again, not my backlog personally, but I'd wager that the VT100 work that they've been doing in the console host is going to do a lot more for the ecosystem (WSL/"Bash on Windows" included) than tabs.
That being said, yeah, I also want tabs. In the meantime, I switch back and forth between conhost and Cmder. :shrug:
Tabs are actually coming to every windows application as part of a W10 feature update: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2017/11/tabs-come-to-every-w...
