This feature requires multiple moving parts from other teams at Microsoft and we have not started on it yet. We have begun planning for the first post-Windows 10 release, and within our team we have talked about how to create hidden consoles and make the console driver/API better all around. I don't have a timeframe yet when we might get to this but it has been part of our presentation to management about the backlog items we prioritized. Overall there are almost 280 items on the backlog and this is in the "elite 25" that are being considered.
Thanks,
Rich

I'd sent my OK to attach the thread to Rich in PM during my vacation.
