Vote for a VS Code change that will make IRIS Portal work better in the Simple Browser tab

Documentation here explains how IRIS Portal can be launched in a tab in the VS Code editing area from Server Manager. One limitation though is that if you then perform an action in Portal which needs to invoke a modal message box in the browser (e.g. window.alert() or window.confirm()) this doesn't work.

I created this issue on the VS Code repository requesting a change that will unblock this. The issue needs more evidence of community support within the next week if it is to stand a chance of progressing. If you are willing to add your vote please go to the issue (you will need to be logged in on GitHub) and click the thumbs-up 馃憤 at the end of my original post there.

Thanks for reading, and extra thanks if you act to support the proposal.

Just 1 more vote needed to pass the threshold.  But even more votes would add more weight.

However it's only the :+1: 馃憤that counts towards moving from Backlog Candidate to Backlog.
