Out of the box VS Code ships with a set of predefined task templates. Since VS Code 1.9 we also support defining more than one command in the tasks.json. Hence the value of a template is not huge anymore since most users will use different commands in a tasks.json.

However extension like C# or C++ want to contribute to the tasks.json to ensure that a build tasks for example executes a C++ specific build script.

We need to define how extensions best participate in running builds and tests.

The current plan to address this is to provide API so that extensions can provide tasks.
