Hello, I would like to propose and work on a new feature, which is opening start menu on "monitor with mouse cursor" just like "PowerToys Run" - "Preferred monitor position" option has. Need a bit of guidance and I'll be right on it.

TL;DR:
Is there any interest in implementing a multimonitor-supported Hot Corners feature?

TL:
I've created Hawt Koners Tool (https://github.com/geektbee/hawtkoners), a multimonitor-supported Hot Corners script via PowerShell (because PowerShell is what I've used most in automations in my life and work). Every Windows Hot Corners app I could find would only ever allow for configuring 4 corners, and only 4 corners. I have 3 monitors, and thought that should be 12 configurable corners. Not finding any app that could compensate for a varying amount of screens, I decided to pursue HKT. I now use HKT to activate some PowerToys hotkey combinations (b/c I have a poor memory, can't remember them, and don't think about them frequently enough), like Mouse Highlighter, Mouse Crosshairs, Mouse Spotlight, etc, and well as the Win+Tab feature, to start my screensaver, and open even simply open the Start Menu.

Now, I know PowerToys uses and combination of C++, C#, and C. Since PowerShell was created with C#, I'm wondering if I should attempt to pursue learning any of those and offering to re-write HKT in such a way that it could be part of PowerToys. Is a hot corners app a need? Is a hot corners app a highly desired want? What is the interest level here? How can we find that out?

Thanks!

@crutkas
If we have such an issue we should either lock conversation or we have to look every x days for new contribution requests. (It seems that there is now one who answers the contribution requests here, except me.) Maybe we have to update the bot trigger.

(#28769 (comment))

@crutkas , @ethanfangg Can someone of the core team check this, please.

Update, I aleready opened a pull request that fixes #31728 and partially #32295 (I don't plan to fix this issue further)
However I think that #31731 is not fixable because I dosen't seems like you can apply the mica effect on the color picker mouse flyout especially given how it's build and the rounded corners (I'm maybe wrong but I wasn't able to solve this issue)
I wanted to modernize the last piece of UI that is outdated in PowerToys which is the FancyZone editor (as far as I know) but this job was bigger than expected so I don't think I will have the time to do that
I'm currently working on solving #3529 (add an option to replace windows search with powertoys run)
