Fancy Zones Needs an "app lock" feature and consecutive zone numbers #48318

Description of the new feature / enhancement

User locks app into a specific zone or specific monitor and zone so that it always opens in that position. Current options are not reliable.

It would be nice with multiple monitors if FancyZones could number zones consecutively or at last uniquely so that the App Lock feature would be easy to implement. This could be just consecutive numbering in the order the zones were created or with multiple monitors, it could be 1-1, 2-4, 3-1: monitor number-zone number

Scenario when this would be used?

It's needed because apps open randomly across the monitors and have to be dragged into their normal positions. The
App Lock feature would be efficient.
