Serial monitor that opens after flashing device

I mostly use the serial monitor in the Arduino IDE to read the UART of devices.
But, I need to close the serial monitor before flashing the device otherwise it will result in an error (ESP32 for instance).

Wouldn't it be great to have a serial monitor in FC, that closes when the "compile to target" is clicked, and reopens when the flashing has ended?

If would be great. How many times do I forget to close PuTTY 😕 when compiling.
