Opening Files via the keyboard shortcut always opens a new tab #2301

May be related to #2272. Not sure which, if any, option is used when opening Files from the system system shortcut. However, you do not get the extra tab if opening from the commandline which is odd. Will investigate. A similar issue is being fixed in Terminal |

We need to do like Terminal and have a command that does not create a duplicate tab if the requested (Home) folder is already restored. |
What Happened?
When I open Files via a keyboard shortcut (Super+E for me, not sure if that's the default or I've changed it), it always opens my home folder on a new tab, even if it's opened on an other tab.
Related: if Files is already open and I use the keyboard shortcut, it doesn't only bring it into focus, but also opens a new tab.
Steps to Reproduce
Expected Behavior
The keyboard shortcut should simply open the application (or bring it into focus if it's already open). It shouldn't open a new tab, especially if there is already one (or more).
