Invalid Title after opening new tab via command line

[denis-taran]

Windows Terminal version (or Windows build number)

10.0.19042.0

Other Software

Installed WSL Version 2 with Ubuntu Disto

Steps to reproduce

1. Install WT, WSL2 and Ubuntu as Disto

2. Set Ubuntu as Default for WT in settings.json

3. Open a new tab with Powershell and enter the following command:

   wt --% new-tab powershell

Expected Behavior

The first tab in the new window should be called "Windows Powershell", because it is a powershell console

Actual Behavior

It shows that Ubuntu is started and that's not the case. The icon is also wrong.

This is just another instance of "the provided commandline replaces the commandline from the default profile". I believe we have an issue tracking this elsewhere on the repository.

The "right" way (today, and until we get executable->profile mapping) to launch this profile is to run wt -p "Windows PowerShell" (or whatever you've named the profile for powershell). Otherwise, your request is "take my default profile, with all of its options like color, title, icon, name, etc. and run powershell inside it."
