Description

Based on [VSFeedback](https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/67037/bug-project-changed-message-after-changing-target.html) | [448538](https://devdiv.visualstudio.com/DevDiv/_workitems/edit/448538)

Changing the TargetFramework in the properties page causes the project to require Save, even though the TargetFramework change is applied immediately (i.e. the Project File is updated on disk).

Either the TF change should not be applied immediately, or the change should not require a Save.
