Custom baud rate / port text box in drop-down

Type: Feature Request
Hello,
Thank you for the great extension, as an embedded systems developer, I find it very useful.
I wanted to make a suggestion that simplifies custom baud rate settings (which are already supported by "Serial monitor")
instead of having to go to the settings page to add custom baud rates which is not evident or intuitive, it would be great to have "custom" entry in the baud rate dropdown menu which allows the user to directly type in the desired value.
also currently when a custom baud rate is configured the default values are no longer accessible which I find not very practical, especially in the case of having two Serial monitors open,
i would also like to make the suggestion of removing the baud rate entry of "250000" since it is not standard, and replacing it with the following values "460800", "576000" and "921600" which are more commonly used.
Thank you.
@MoDi07 Thanks for suggestion! We actually recently updated the custom baud rates behavior similar to what you suggested (it is available in the current pre-release, and will be available in 0.11.0 when we release that official version), where instead of replacing the default baud rates, we add the requested baud rates to the list. Please let me know if this helps you!
As for your other requests, we'll add it to the backlog and keep an eye on it for where it may fit into our workload. Thanks!
#123 also adds to this request that a custom port text box in the drop down is supported.
