I think it's entirely possible, and a great idea. I've been looking for something myself and someone has created the start of it:
https://github.com/w4po/ExplorerTabUtility
I believe it uses FlaUI to do this, but unfortunately it's a little slow. Also you can't drag out the tab into a new window or open anything in a 'new window'.
I might have a crack at trying to implement the desired features, if I can.
Description of the new feature / enhancement
I'd like the possibility (by option), to be able to open a folder as a new tab in the new mutli-tab Windows Explorer in 22H2 (instead of a new window). The idea is if an explorer window already exists, then add a tab there, otherwise open a new window.
I am not sure if this is even possible, that is if a relevant api exists, but I think it would be a great idea to avoid cluttering the desktop with multiple windows.
Scenario when this would be used?
Normal everyday use
