Vortex already manages my SSE steam install. How do I add a *second* managed instance for GOG?

I can't figure this out. I have both the Steam and GOG versions of SSE installed now, and I wanted to build the GOG version specifically for Skyrim Together Reborn... But I can't figure out how to create a separate managed instance for it in Vortex. It seems like all I can do is change the game location on my original Steam instance, but that's not what I'm after.

My unerstanding is we can't do so easily at this time. There is a loose bit of info on how to do so if you are so inclined but some of the feedback is that the possible methods are unreliable/awkward. I expect Vortex developers may provide an update to handle this in the future.

 

The below discussion in the comments section is where I got the above info:

Tannin mentions a couple of methods here: https://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/12077098-skyrim-released-on-gog/page-14&do=findComment&comment=115692988

 

I thought Picky also mentioned a method using shortcuts with different command line parameters to effectively have two different versions of Vortex, but I can't find that post now. Maybe it got deleted because it didn't work correctly? Or maybe it's just because the forum search is overburdened and can't return recent results.
