Current behavior

When starting server, it will open my default browser.

Expected behavior

I'm aware of this setting liveServer.settings.CustomBrowser where I can change the behavior. However, I would like to see it open in built in Vscode Simple Browser so I can work with the file side by side.

Current workaround was copy the localhost url in the opened browser, then open Simple Browser: Show to paste the link.
