SUMMARY

I'm using Ghostty, and I remember this used to work. And I've set Ghostty option `gtk-single-instance = false` in `~/.config/ghostty/config` to better observe the options passed in by Dolphin.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1. Ctrl+Alt+T, open the first Ghostty terminal.
2. Navigate to some directory in Dolphin.
3. Press Open Terminal Here shortcut in Dolphin (FWIW, I remember before it was Shift+F4 but in settings it is Alt+Shift+F4 now, anyway I have tried both and they produce the same result)
4. Click "Open Ghostty Here" from the right-click menu in Dolphin.

OBSERVED RESULT

Observe the three Ghsotty process launch options: (in order of launch)
```
/usr/bin/ghostty --gtk-single-instance=true --initial-window=false
/usr/bin/ghostty
/usr/bin/ghostty --working-directory=/home/asuna/dev
```

EXPECTED RESULT

```
/usr/bin/ghostty --gtk-single-instance=true --initial-window=false
/usr/bin/ghostty --working-directory=/home/asuna/dev
/usr/bin/ghostty --working-directory=/home/asuna/dev
```
