Serious question: why? I think its very useful when an editor in a browser like with Repl.it, GitPod, and this project, but when the editor is running on your desktop using your own browser seems much nicer. You can use all the devtools, extensions, etc that you are accustomed to.
Btw the theia editor, pretty much VS Code, does have this feature [0]
It is much nicer in general, but what about when used with Codespaces?
My old MBP bricked the other day, and while I wait for a new laptop I’m going to use a random cheap computer to do my dev work. I love the idea of having a full fledged cloud IDE with all the bells and whistles already set up for me. This helps enable that!
