Research direction
Begin with the Java Debugger extension's Run Java and Debug Java buttons, then review how launch.json and the Gradle extension provide the working alternatives. Define whether those buttons can be hidden or overridden without disabling the debugger dependency; done when the supported behavior is clear for the reported setup.

Description
Hi. Is it possible to remove or override the "Run Java", "Debug Java" buttons that (I believe) the Java Debugger extension is adding to VSCode?
I'm running a Gradle project and the Gradle extension can successfully run and debug the project but I don't think it's possible to edit the launch.json file to use the same calls that the Gradle extension uses.
It's not a big deal but it's just confusing to have very visible Run/Debug buttons that do not work but have a set of Run/Debug buttons inside the Gradle extension that do work (but depend on the Java Debugger extension also so I can't totally disable it).
Thanks.
