Application detection in 1PW8 doesn't work as in 1PW7

For me, the old app:// mappings were a way to ensure that certain apps were pinned to the top of the quick access list, without having to type a fuzzy match a dozen times a day. That's still possible here, but I would never have run into it -- I don't want my AWS account info to log in like a website, I just want it there at the top of the list to be able to take the MFA from it. Or, as another example, when LDAP is being used for SSH logins in iTerm2, I only want a passphrase, which also doesn't activate an association.

• It would be great to have a way to associate an app from an entry. It's counterintuitive that quick access is the only pathway to associating an app.
• Alternatively, expand the trigger for associating an app to copying single values out of Quick Access.
• iTerm2 doesn't map as iTerm2, but instead as 'macOS User Account Password', as noted above.
• once iTerm is added, the Cmd-\ combo no longer works in iTerm. and I must use Cmd-Shift-space.
• Visual Studio Code ("Code") maps properly with the pretend-to-login approach. However, as with iTerm, the Cmd-\ combo breaks.
