Description
Hi,
I'd like to suggest an enhancement to the Arguments filed under the Run tab.
The user should be able to save arguments and select/load them when needed, instead of re-typing the text.
A good example for this is PyCharm's 'Run Configurations' menu, where you can save execution details (like arguments) and then just select the required one from a drop-down list.

Research direction
Start by inspecting the RIDE desktop application's Run tab and its Arguments field; no source files or tests are named in the issue. Use PyCharm's Run Configurations as the stated reference, and consider the work complete when users can save argument sets and select or load them later instead of retyping them.
