Allow to open multiple workspaces in the same window

See original GitHub issue

Workspace feature is great because we can grouping projects in a top context (microservices projects in a big API workspace). But, only one workspace can be open. This feature can be powerful if multiple workspaces can be open at the same time (in the same window).

test

And another request : it will be great if :

  • Right click on the workspace name should open menu with a “settings” item (which open xxxx.code-workspace).
  • Workspace settings should contain a name attribute (to clearly identify the workspace in the left pane in VS Code)

To clarify, this story is specifically not relating to multi-root workspaces, but rather requesting the ability to display multiple separate workspaces within the same OS window, correct? Asking because I noticed the github issue has the #multi-root label, which I believe may be inaccurate.

Agree, this functionality is really lacking. Working with multiple repos/folders where you want to keep a certain separation from one another (while maintaining easy access) is a bit of a pain right now.
