A concrete example is wanting to pass the `--tar` flag to the heroku CLI tool. I think there are at least two options for doing this: documentation for each publishing tool to explain how to set flags via env variables (if possible) or building a mechanism that lets users pass additional flags through datasette.

When using `datasette publish heroku binder-launches.db --extra-options=""--config facet_time_limit_ms:35000 --config sql_time_limit_ms:35000"" --name=binderlytics --install=datasette-vega` to publish https://binderlytics.herokuapp.com/ the following error happens:

After installing GNU tar with `brew install gnu-tar` and modifying `datasette/publish/heroku.py` to include the `--tar=/path/to/gnu-tar` publishing works.

I think the problem occurs once your heroku slug reaches a certain size. At least when I add only a few 100 entries to the datasette then the error does not occcur.

If you run, for example:

I would like it if default browser is launched, at the URL that is being served.

The angular cli does this, for example 

  ng serve <project> --open  #see https://angular.io/cli/serve
