Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
We have non-coders deploying via DAXIF. They would like to easily be able to add web resources (e.g. images) to a solution, without having to understand DAXIF, Visual Studio, Git etc.
Today they can add web resources directly to a solution, but DAXIF will then try to delete those web resources (and fail if they are in use).

Describe the solution you'd like
I suggest changing DAXIF such that it only tries to delete web resources if their type/name is in a whitelist. E.g. .js and .html files could by default be the only files that DAXIF tries to delete if they are not in version control.

Are you using Azure DevOps or GitHub? Non-coders can drag-and-drop files into the browser in the correct folder. The files will be uploaded and a commit dialog wil pop-up. They fill in the reason for adding the files and press commit. After an (automatic) deployment the files are available in the solution.

Hopefully this alternative way is easy enough for them.
