Default home page should be customizable #37

Feature

Right now, when I accidentally or deliberately close the web view Tab, and reopen it, it always opens up with the Bing page.

I would like to be able to change the default, and ideally, do this on a per project basis. Having said that, even a global settings property would be of a huge help.

Why?

When I work on web projects, I typically keep http://localhost:NNNN open, if it's a Rails project, or a Jekyll, etc – I need to be able to see the live preview.

This plugin is fantastic in how minimalist it is, but I would argue that which page the plugin opens upon loading is a rather important and for me – critical – feature.

I could probably try to figure out how to do it, but I am not a nodejs expert, so that might take me a while.

Would really appreciate this feature.

To be frank with you @kigster this project has been dead for a while and merge'ing changes is such a pain its not even worth working on. no matter how ridiculously trivial that would be, (10m) if the change can't get pushed... well.

@Announcement really sorry for dropping the ball on this project and taking a long time to reply. @kigster can you put a PR together with your changes.

@Announcement would you like to be added as a contributor to the repo so you can merge/commit changes to it and I can push to apm when needed. Hopefully this will speed up development process
