When I accidentally write a bug that causes a compile failure, I get a modal error like this:

I think it's a great default setting. However, now that I'm very familiar with vscode, I know to look in the debug console. ... that's where I'm looking when I start the debugger. Closing the modal every time there is a compile issue is just extra hassle since it is already very clear from the debug console that I have an error and what it is.

Please make a configurable setting to diable this modal.

I recommend:

debug.modalDialogOnStartFailure
