Is there any way to specify on a command line that regedit open
already on a specific key?

You could use RegWrite method of VBScript to write to the Reg_Sz string;

"LastKey"=""
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\Regedit


prior to starting regedit.exe

An obsure one.

A third-party registry tool may be an easier and more capable solution.

Just for example:
