Description of the new feature/enhancement
It would be really great to have some kind of programmatic way to manipulate Windows Terminal similar to the iTerm2 python https://iterm2.com/python-api/.
The scenario I specifically seeing great for this is having a command line tool that can be run and manipulate my WT environment to meet the needs of that tool or my preference layout. One case I see is running a CLI tool that will open up the side pane of WT and then run another executable in the pane so I can have a split screen experience when I am working in the terminal.
Although a lot of the functionality can be gained by using the wt command, it would be interesting to have a more robust programmatic way to utilize the API that (presumably) the wt command calls. It would also be more helpful for any future production level applications to keep track of versioning with WT and avoid potential breaking changes to the wt command.
Essentially if there can be an API that can do all the functionalities with wt in a more robust programmatic way that would be really awesome. Having at least the split pane
Proposed technical implementation details (optional)
Perhaps as a C# package or a Python Library, either would be good.
I would be really interested to hear if anyone else would find this useful or have other interesting scenarios for this kind of feature?
