Plans for new Deployment type between 'Dev' and 'Production'?
Hi there, forgive me if this has already been asked.
Currently, our 'Testflight' setup consists of creating an entirely new project to act as the database for this, however this doesn't feel like a clean solution as it would be nicer if there was one more designated Deployment option from the existing ones.
The 'Preview deployments' don't exactly match what we need and I understand from the docs it does mention this is the best solution (https://docs.convex.dev/production#staging-environment: 'If you need a more permanent staging environment, you can use a separate Convex project, and deploy to it by setting the CONVEX_DEPLOY_KEY environment variable when running npx convex deploy'), but again it would be nice to have everything contained within one project so we wouldn't have to update environment variables in both projects for example.
Are there any plans to add anything like this in the future or will this remain the best method to use? Thanks

Convex is built to serve live, production app traffic. Here we cover how to
