Description

**Visual Studio Version**: 17.0 preview2 31430.40.main

I've tried out the new Launch Profiles window in recent dev17 dogfood builds and I have found it's somewhat disruptive for it to be a modal. The reason being that when I'm setting up the command line arguments or environment variables I often will need to jump around to different files in my project to see what command line switches are supported in the project and what the values need to be. I would prefer if this window could just be a tab as in the previous versions of VS.
