Display a flat list of tasks

[pkkid]

Having tasks always under a submenu becomes tedious quite quickly. It would be nice if there was an option to show a flat list of tasks to run rather than the tree view currently displayed. Maybe show the full path to the task like npm src/package.json serve. Its a little verbose, but does eliminate 2 repetitive clicks every time open my editor.

Alternatively (or additionally) have an option to start Task Explorer with all folders expanded.

@spmeesseman Hi. I also want this feature implemented. Can I try to solve this issue? or is there any reason it hard to work for it?

It might be good if we add an option like taskExplorer.defaultCollapsibleState.

I also would like to see this. I just downloaded this extension so that I have an easy way to view all the tasks that I define in VS code, and I disabled all the other options. A way to just list everything out flat would be really helpful.

Thank you for a great extension! Since I found it I am using it all the time. It motivated me to organize and automate my workflow, which saves me tons of time.

My request in connection to this issue: an "expand all" button in the side bar would be great, just next to the "collapse all".

I also lack the option to have the list expanded at the start of vscode
