The Azure powershell steps run on the Octopus server, which is good for ease of getting up and running and small projects, however it is not great when you've got a lot of steps and a lot of projects. This is especially painful when you've got lots of steps that take time. If a cloud service takes 3 minutes to deploy, and you've got 6 to deploy, that blocks the server for at least 18 minutes.

This would probably be even more useful if implemented in conjunction with https://octopusdeploy.uservoice.com/forums/170787-general/suggestions/6316906-support-run-on-any-tentacle-model-for-deployment.

I know that some people would prefer still to keep the existing model, so it would be useful to implement as an option, rather than forcing everyone to switch to a tentacle based solution for this.
