In PowerToys Run, once the application is searched allow user to hit tab once and enter the command line args.

Scenario:
let's say you want to open Microsoft Edge in inprivate mode directly.

Current Behavior:
Launch Powertoys Run [Alt+Space] then type 'edge' and hit enter to launch the browser. This opens the browser and you need to go to ellipsis and select 'New Inprivate Window'

Enhancement:
Launch Powertoys Run [Alt+Space] then type 'edge' and hit tab and type '-inprivate' command. This should launch edge in inprivate mode directly.

I like this idea a lot. This would be work needed via the program plugin
