[Bug]: Ctrl+W closes tab + code-server

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

OS/Web Information

• Web Browser: Chrome
• Local OS: Windows 10
• Remote OS: Ubuntu
• Remote Architecture: md64
• code-server --version: 4.9.0 0502dfa1ff42ab8a43adb911f7bf21f8b09ee25f with Code 1.73.1

Steps to Reproduce

1. Install https://open-vsx.org/extension/cweijan/vscode-mysql-client2
2. Set up and open a table tab like below
3. Clicking on Close will close just the tab, but pressing ctrl+w will close this table tab + code-server itself

Expected

I expect ctrl+w to close only this tab, unsure if it is a plugin issue or code-server, but feels more like code-server

Actual

pressing ctrl+w will close this table tab + code-server itself

Does this issue happen in VS Code or GitHub Codespaces?

• I cannot reproduce this in VS Code.
• I cannot reproduce this in GitHub Codespaces.

Are you accessing code-server over HTTPS?

• I am using HTTPS.

Notes

NOTE

Cannot test in GitHub codespaces due to The 'MySQL' extension is not available in Visual Studio Code for the Web Table tab closed properly in desktop VS Code

The problem is due to SIGPIPE signal: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/blob/14459d6db1a088fbf1c631350cb27ade59fe1e39/src/bootstrap.js#L31

If running code-server via systemd, there’s already IgnoreSIGPIPE=yes set by default for systemd service. All we have to do is set the environment variable VSCODE_HANDLES_SIGPIPE

Since I am running code-server as a user service, I overrided the service file like this:

systemctl --user edit code-server

Add the following lines:

[Service]
Environment=VSCODE_HANDLES_SIGPIPE=true

This is just a workaround. The correct solution would be for code-server to properly ignore the SIGPIPE signal and set the VSCODE_HANDLES_SIGPIPE environment variable to true.

I just gave it a shot as well and could not reproduce either 😢 (Codespaces nor code-server)
