hi, when I operate the open folder in menu bar, it opens in a new theia application.
I want to open in the current theia application when operating the open folder in menu bar.

            'workspace.preserveWindow': {
                description: nls.localize('theia/workspace/preserveWindow', 'Enable opening workspaces in current window.'),
                type: 'boolean',
                default: false
            },
