Describe the problem

Whenever compiling, the "Output" tab always comes to focus, even if the serial monitor is out; Trying to fully switch off the "Output" tab was not possible;
The inability to keep the Serial to be sticky, forces the user to additionally click every time after compiling, and this can be nerve-wrecking while debugging.

Probably just an option to disable the "Output" tab, or remove the automatic focus - could solve this issue

To reproduce

Switch on serial monitor. Compile sketch; Serial monitor tab is disabled, the "Output" tab is active.

Expected behavior

Serial should be visible while debugging:

Arduino IDE version

2.0.0.rc6

Operating system

macOS

Operating system version

catalina

Additional context

Thanks for your request @intoku. A proposal that would also resolve this via a different approach is tracked here: #289

Yeah, those are cool, but a simple "pin" window to front would answer a lot of folks needs.
