Description

I don't find gn in ROADMAP.md, but I it can work in VSCode, so I post this issue.
When typing [num] gn, it should visualize the [num] position matching the search pattern, but it just works like gn, not to go the [num] position.

Research direction

Start by reproducing [num] gn in VSCode and compare its behavior with plain gn; ROADMAP.md is mentioned as a reference for expected support. Done means [num] gn visualizes the specified matching-search position rather than behaving like plain gn.
