Description
Thank you for this great project. This is a feature request to expand capabilities documented in https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-cloud/dev/dev-proxy/how-to/intercept-requests-from-specific-processes, to capture all children processes for a given process.
Typical use case: Capture only the traffic from Microsoft Scout, currently not easy because Scout spawns many child processes (screenshot below shows some, but there are more depending on scenarios):
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reading the linked process-interception documentation and examining how Dev Proxy currently selects traffic from a specific process. Use the Microsoft Scout example to define the child-process behavior, and consider the feature done when traffic from the selected process and its children can be captured without unrelated processes being included.
