Description
Now that we've moved to an integrated console in the PowerShell extension for VS Code, we need an alternative way for showing UI prompts from modules like Plaster and other editor commands. It would be better to have a more focused API for showing quick pick lists instead of overloading the existing PSHostUserInterface prompt APIs.
