Impossible to open Library when using PDF reader on MacOS if you accidentally close it

This is a bit annoying, but I think it's also easy to fix. When you open a pdf in Zotero and you close the library, there is no way to re-open it. You can only close the pdf you are viewing and click to the Zotero icon. But if you are viewing several documents every time you have to close everything just to go back to the library.

I think you can fix this thing in 2 ways:
1. Use the MacOS feature that allows you with the right click on the icon in the dock to always go to the main window, even if it's closed (e.g., if I'm viewing a specific note, clicking with two fingers on the icon I can open all my apple notes app, etc.);
2. When you are in pdf reader mode, in the top menu, under "file" you can click on "show on library", but this button works only if the library windows is open. If you find the way to fix this button and make it work even when the library is closed, I think it could be another solution.

Thanks for your effort!
