Add additional packages/modules/themes at build time by selecting with browser extension.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

Some issues are related to multiple projects interacting with each other or may have undefined dependencies (those not in composer.json). These additional modules/themes would need to be installed at the same time to fully work on the issue.

Describe the solution you'd like

One option. In the extension, you should allow selecting additional drupal projects/packages to install along with it.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Instruct users to use the terminal to add the additional packages using composer.

Additional context

This may be implemented in a similar way that https://simplytest.me/ allows you to select additional modules/themes. Evaluate_Drupal_projects_online___simplytest_me

That is a great idea, thank you! I'd love making it easier for users to use a UI for choosing multiple projects for 1 workspace.

For now - users could install it manually after the initial process finishes. The issue of adding such interface, since we're currently using a browser extension, pressing something out of the extension makes the extension disappear :( I have another issue https://github.com/shaal/DrupalPod/issues/16, it's very possible when that UI is ready - adding this functionality would be a perfect fit.

Not a perfect option, but throwing it out there...

To avoid the complication of an autocomplete (external requests). What about adding a text field that would just accept a list of composer packages. Like drupal/pathauto:^2:0 drupal/token?
