Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I've posted a complete write up in this ticket: https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/13041

I am hoping for a method to start WSL-G non-interactively inside Ms-Terminal.

Describe the solution you'd like I'd like to be able to use WLSG X11 forwarding using microsoft-ssh with microsoft-terminal to a remote host.

Describe alternatives you've considered I describe my solution to this in @microsoft/terminal/issues/13041

Additional context Please merge this issue with @microsoft/terminal/issues/13041

Additional two 2¢.

I would like to be able to display X11 applications I start on a remote host where I log in with Putty.

I use Putty because it supports AD/Kerberos authentication (no password, no ssh keys) and both local and remote hosts are part of a domain.

EDIT: X11 forwarding works when I start ssh to the remote host from WSL, but there seem to be way to access AD/Kerberos tickets from WSL. At least not out-of-the box.
