It parses the package.json directly, no .sln or .dproj is 
generated. It runs dub build for building and dub for executing 
the program -- where do I specify run arguments btw?

I think I might open up all the dependency projects as well when 
opening the 'root' package.json - do you think that it's a good 
idea or just distracting the user from the main project?
