Oh and also, making it so when you launch apps with a shortcut (from url) it doesn’t display the app list instead it just shows a blank screen until app loads if possible

Not possible, app cannot retrieve URL data without fully initializing.

And also for the main topic: just hold and tap Multitask; and it appears as Open (singletask) when Multitask by Default is on. Plus we cannot do it for shortcut because:

Have multitask apps opening and you open a singletask app would force you to terminate running multitask apps.
Have singletask app opening and you open multitask apps: while this might be possible, if the guest singletask app gets terminated for whatever reason, multitask apps would also be terminated. (while this also happens to LiveContainer itself, LiveContainer tends to use less RAM and CPU resources to avoid sudden termination in background)
