I had some problems passing args to a PowerShell program from launch.json. Please see my original detailed report at microsoft/vscode#4057 .
@weinand asked me to move the bug to vscode-powershell.
This morning I found a workaround to the problem (use single quotes within double quotes), however, I still think there is a need for some documentation of the launch.json file format. I filed an issue detailing what documentation I (as a VSCode user) would like to see. Please see microsoft/vscode-docs#230
Please address at least the documentation issue.

We really just need to make sure we handle arguments containing spaces correctly. I've filed this issue to track the problem: PowerShell/PowerShellEditorServices#190

You're right though, we definitely need documentation, especially around the use of the debugger.
