Request to restore terminals (layout, not content) upon vscode restart #135687

Hi,

I would like to request that upon restart vscode, the terminals can be restored.
By restored, i mean the layout, the custom names, icon and color for the terminals are retained. The content DOES NOT need to be retain.
Otherwise efforts to customize all the opened terminals would gone to waste when vscode is restarted.

Alternatively, vscode can provide new workspace configurations, where developer can manually enter a list of terminals' custom names, Vscode, upon starting, will automatically create new terminals based on the configured list. Even better, each time, deveoper manually open a new terminal , vscode will auto update the workspace configuration file to add a new terminal to the configured list. This applies the same to renaming of terminal

Hope that this can be achieved without relying on plugin.

*Do note that this might not be a duplicate of other look similar kind of feature request. Cos for this request, content does not need to be preserved. And the terminal's custom names should be preserved (sadly, persistentSessionReviveProcess, does not maintain the terminal custom names)
