Description
Summary of the new feature
Great job on the new ISE Mode commands! However, when I switch to ISE Mode I'd like to be able to easily switch back to the settings I previously had configured. What are your thoughts on adding a backup feature to the affected settings so that when you disable ISE Mode these can be properly restored?
Proposed technical implementation details (optional)
I think the previous settings could be cached or backed up in a way that would make them easy to restore. For instance, maybe the existing settings could just be prefixed with "ISE_Mode" or somesuch and this can be reverted on disable.

Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start by locating the existing ISE Mode commands and the affected VS Code settings, then determine which values must be preserved when ISE Mode is enabled. Done means disabling ISE Mode restores the user's prior settings without overwriting changes made while it was active.
