Description

I would like to start external tools for quick connection. Maybe with a dialog to fill in all needed variables for the command.

Research direction
The issue requests a dialog to start external tools with variables for quick connection. First, review the existing quick connect feature (likely in UI components) and any current external tools implementation. Check the two comments for additional context. Then design a new dialog to collect variables and execute the tool command via System.Diagnostics.Process. Ensure the configuration is persisted, possibly in XML or settings file.
