Floating editor windows exploration We have started to explore how to pull editors out of the workbench window into their own windows. This feature is our highest upvoted feature request and we plan to have a first working version for our Insiders users to play with in October.
Is this like multi window support, or just floating panels within the VS code window's canvas?
For dual screen setups, sometimes I end up opening two instances of VS code for the same workspace, which seems a bit overkill.
Seems like detachable panels, if you scroll all the way down on the article you'll see a video of it working. So excited for this feature. I've in the past did the whole "two intances sharing workspace" but as you said, it such overkill.
