Essential Extensions (Web)

An extension pack to improve the Visual Studio editing experience for web development.

Some of these extensions are also bundled as part of Web Essentials. I chose to split them out separately since they were specific to web development while others in that extension were not.

See the changelog for changes and roadmap.
