Exclude all files except for...
The files exclude allows you to set `true/false` values, but it doesn't seem to take them completely into account. For example, I would like to hide **everything** except for the scripts folder. You might then assume that this would do this: ``` { "files.exclude": { "**/*": true, "**/Scripts": false } } ``` It does not do that, it just hides everything. In order to achieve this, you must list every file and directory except for the **Scripts** directory, and who knows how many directories there are and if a new directory/file gets added you then must edit the list to exclude those. In the end, their should be a way to hide everything except for xxx.
