Description
While support for specifying a single startup project was added by setting DefaultStartup="true" in the Project element, it does not work for specifying multiple startup projects, as I pointed out in my comment on the original issue.
It would be great it if I could specify DefaultStartup="true" on multiple projects in the slnx file and it would be respected.
