More concerning, is not showing active connection for the query anywhere - so there's a danger of not realising you're connected to the wrong DB. These sorts of safety nets usually give me comfort - just that little "duction" was enough for me to know it was "production"

@vscode.dev who am I best to pass feedback onto?

Here's another minor thing: for various reasons, I always ran my Azure Data Studio in light mode, but my VS Code in dark mode.

By merging these two totally different personas/tools, I now have to choose or the other.

I bet you could set up a separate profile for your data use, and have a separate shortcut for that (code --profile ) and that profile can be in light mode, and have a completely different set of extensions etc.

Might be a bit annoying to set up at first, but doable probably.

That's a great idea, I'll try doing that. Then it could also have only the extensions I need for that persona!

Brilliant thanks David!

If profiles don’t work, the other trick I used to do for a similar thing (one vscode to use, one vscode to work on vscode things) is to install Insiders as well, then it’s truly fully separate

(half asleep... Half read at first.... You said about the extensions too!)
