MSBuildWorkspace's NuGet package adds the build hosts via the content file mechanism; this can be surprising because those appear in Solution Explorer by default, which means people see a lot of cruft where the whole point is to be invisible. We may just want to inject a small bit of MSBuild to mark those as invisible.

(Ironically, I was involved in the project system/MSBuild implementation of content files ages ago, so the fact I forgot about such a behavior is funny...almost.)

#76942 is discussing us having to move away from the "Content" mechanism entirely; in that case this would get fixed.
