I think we should have more testing of the setting first. I know the unit tests are failing on Windows right now and I'm not sure why at the moment. Right now this is fairly basic, I have #129283 filed to look into improving server management operations in the extension code.

We may be able to enable it on macOS and linux sooner than Windows, we'd just want to do some more testing before making it the default.
