It would be nice to have new kind of *_prompt variable (like string_prompt and others) for boolean values.
${check_prompt:"Enable some feature":false}

Reproducible: Always

I second this, but in favor of activating/deactivating single lines of the program arguments. 

For example 

${check_prompt:"Enable some feature":true|false:-enable this argument}

On starting the launch configuration you get a list where you can select/de-select the arguments to enable/disable, where the default is defined in the 3rd argument of the variable.

Unfortunately, we don't have resources to work on this.
