Description

This would help make project management a bit easier as a user can make easily make different builds from the same branch.

One idea is to have a user list of build targets somewhere in settings and each asset could have an exclude from build option.

We would also need to consider the launch tab process as that will need to be modified to handle this as well.

Research direction

The issue names project settings, per-asset build exclusion, and the launch tab; start by tracing those entry points and the existing publishing flow. Done means users can define multiple build targets, select asset inclusion or exclusion per target, and have the launch process honor the selected target.
