Add ability to choose control point in VAB

[RedPandaRage]

Adding the ability to determine the front face of a vessel before launching would help tons with crafts that have multiple probes attached to them. Or even being able to choose a control point. I'm building a rocket that carries 8 satellites/relay probes. For whatever reason every time I go to launch my ship is at a 45 degree angle on the nav Ball. My relays are placed in the rocket at a 45 degree angle so I assume my root part is being forced onto one of my probes instead of my main probe for flight orientation of the rocket. If I could choose the launch orientation or command point in VAB I wouldn't have to rebuild my entire rocket... again...

Just curious, is the root part of the entire vessel the main probe core? Would definitely make sense to me that the designated root part have top priority for the command function

from my understanding the root part would be any command pod or probe to be placed first. however I built my payload first and then merged it into my rocket. for some reason though one of the probes inside the payload keeps becoming the root part when being merged.
