Frankly I don't think this would be priority here. Many more features are lacking like this in powershell as well, so moved to arch last year. |

My intention is to make this "re-docking" automated with the help of power toys. Hence, providing a perpetual dark mode.
Scenario when this would be used?
Let's say that you are working in a dark system theme, and have configured most of your applications in dark mode, but there is a new app that cannot be configured into dark mode. Consider that we need to follow a workflow that requires this 'light /default mode' app to run alongside the dark mode apps. This would cause eye strain.
The selective app color invert can be used to invert the colors of the selected application in an easy manner. reopening the app would still be overridden with the color inversion applied.
Example:
I always use my apps in dark mode, but Veroroute is in light mode by default:
However, using the magnifiers' (docked mode +invert colors), it is easy on the eyes... almost:
