Description

This would be a boolean user.setting option that when true (set the false by default) would allow users to re-run their script with the "Run Code" command or hotkey without first being served the "Code is already running!" dialog and having to stop their running code.

So ideally re-running a piece of code while another instance is already running would automatically stop the prior instance and start the new instance without presenting a jarring dialog etc.

This would definitely be useful for fast iterative work on languages like AutoHotKey, where scripts are commonly re-run without first closing them.

p.s. love the extension! #
