extensions view: Wrap stars instead of clipping them
See original GitHub issueThis is not a duplicate of #9644 – but it’s perhaps tangentially related
I’m using multiple boxes side by side in VSCode, so my individual editors are moderately narrow. And I turn on word wrap for my editors…
When I searched for an HTML Preview editor, in extensions, I saw this:
2 stars doesn’t seem like a good rating. But I installed it anyway. (Yes, it has 3+ stars, but …)
Keep in mind that a user, like me, won’t necessarily know how non present stars work. Sure, it’s possible that they’re painted as hollow (as VSCode does), but it’s also possible that they’re painted as invisible, and if a user doesn’t see them, and hasn’t looked for extensions in general / recently, there’s no way for them to know.
stars aren’t shown in this view, so there’s no hint about how to expect them above:
Some parts of the top grow ellipses, and the descriptive content wraps:
In short, I’d like the stars to wrap as an integral unit. arguably whatever tht13.html-preview-vscode
is and the non selectable text This extension is enabled globally. should as well. Or, if not, at least use ellipses instead of simply clipping them.

Please be my guest
Personally, if I were you, I’d start working on it, the odds aren’t high that someone else is, and worst case, I’d learn how to do some VSCode coding and not have my changes merged because someone else’s changes are merged instead.
I’d probably also join the slack community: https://aka.ms/vscode-dev-community
