Creation of a mechanism to properly select a target system(s) when working on a multi-saf environment

When a user is working on a multi-saf environment, there is no mechanism to switch systems during a session or chose which systems should be affected or considered as context for a prompt. The suggestion is to introduce a mechanism to switch systems/connections and/or provide a way for the user to select or confirm target systems before responding to a user prompt.
