Ultimately, the aim is to stop having to target net472 here, and stop being in-process with VS. Those two things cause all manner of painful dependency issues https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/extensibility/visualstudio.extensibility/get-started/in-proc-extensions?view=vs-2022#add-a-visualstudioextensibility-extension-to-an-existing-vssdk-extension-project
… shouldn't matter now hopefully... Prompt: I'm converting a Visual Studio extension to use the out-of-process visual studio extensibility framework Give the full code converting these settings into the new style <current> Here's a sample project in the extensibility framework as an example: < class from https://github.com/microsoft/VSExtensibility/blob/main/New_Extensibility_Model/Samples/SettingsSample/SettingDefinitions.cs >
…rrectly parent them
…file identifiers used TODO: Priority, text editor right click menu,...testing whether it works at all

Spike moving to this new extensibility framework. This would allow the extension to go out of process, which takes many of the painful constraints off its dependency versioning.
Unfortunately it's quite a bit of effort to move, and the extensibility features needed seem incomplete still. e.g. The options page stuff is still in preview.
I don't have the time to complete this, just putting it here for reference in case anyone does.
