Could 'Web Access' be hidden for untracked sources?

Basically all I’m saying is we need to be careful otherwise we’ll accidentally write a project system here 😃 Maybe worth looking if we should switch to Buildalyzer from MSBuildWorkspace, I haven’t investigated this.

Need to decide whether all of this is even worth the trouble in the first place.

Unfortunately I don’t think MSBuildWorkspace exposes any direct access to the MSBuild evaluation and the results of design-time builds. We may need to evaluate separately to retrieve this info, and that opens a whole 'nother can of worms.

Here’s an old sample on how to do evaluation: https://github.com/KirillOsenkov/MSBuildTools/blob/8ce8b1d1f88346726822b5160ba0c478d680fce5/src/MSBuildDumper/MSBuildDumper.cs#L17

But this might slow down the tool significantly. Also need to properly dispose of these to not leak memory. It’s all a bit tricky unfortunately. I also recently wrote this quick overview doc: https://github.com/KirillOsenkov/Bliki/wiki/Quick-overview-of-MSBuild
