Are you talking about generator for IPM/ZPM module.xml file?

That's one possible feature. Others could be "native in VS Code" features to achieve what the second paragraph of the About IPM wiki page enumerates:

Use IPM to search, install, upgrade, remove and publish modules.

That's nice to have. I know there is a brilliant application by @Henrique Dias and @José Pereira 
 - IPM Explorer, which provides very impressive browsing capabilities along with a smooth install/deinstall functionality. Do you want to introduce something similar?
