The scenario (which may/maynot be possible) would be to have VSCode on Windows be able to add in a docker baseed session of PowerShell Core on a Windows machines

This assumes

  • Container feature is installed

  • Latest version of Docker is installed on the machine

  • Dockerfiles can be targeted to kick start a pwsh session.

If this were possible then that would help local xplat development in VSCode eve further than currently possible.

Tied in to #1544

My initial thoughts are that this should be able to be surfaced using the powerShellAdditionalExePaths setting?

will track this in #1544 as it looks like this will need more work to allow it to be possible as per update in #1544
