EXE launched in prefix: launch from outside of Heroic?

I'm using Mod Organizer 2 for some games. It's very inconvenient to use the "launch EXE from prefix" option as Heroic doesn't even save the last-used folder. I could also add MO2 as a custom EXE, but then Heroic starts tracking its usage as game time. Is there a way to create a script or desktop entry for MO2 to be launched inside Heroic's game prefix?

As I mentioned, doing that will track it as game time.

you could use the Add GameAdd Game feature to add the exe and pick the same prefix maybe, then it won't count as playing time since it would be a different entry in heroic (sharing the same prefix)

Yeah, that would work if you only had once instance of Mod Organizer. It would also help if Heroic saved the last-used custom EXEs, so you could just choose them from a menu instead of manually pointing to the EXE each and every time.

GOG Galaxy has a nice context menu where you can choose between alternate entries.

some GOG games provide the content of those alternate entries in the metadata, we already do that too for the games that provide that information
