// ===========================
// Flow
// ===========================
//
// 1) Snapshot project file full path.
// 2) Open Project File with filePath and snapshot its ProjectRootElement.
// 3) Retrieve Project GUID of the project snapshotted in step 1
// 4) Unload project as if user manually unloaded it, and then close it
//
// 5) Walk property elements, stop at chosen property Name
// 5.1) Get the parent of the property element (should be a ProjectPropertyGroupElement)
// 5.2) Remove the property element, which will be an immediate child of the parent you just got in 5.1
// 6) Save the ProjectRootElement
// 7) Reload the project. This is where the GUID from step 3 comes in handy.
// 8) For good measure, save the project via the hierarchy.
// 9) You are done, Son!
//
