Description

Right now, the advantages of using glue is very limited by the fact that we cannot access intellisense when entering a variable between curly brackets, both in RStudio and vscode.

Is it possible for you to enable this? Thanks.

Research direction

Reproduce the missing IntelliSense while entering an R variable inside glue curly braces in both RStudio and VS Code. Trace how the language server parses glue interpolation and supplies completion results; done means relevant completions are available in both editors without breaking ordinary glue expressions.
