Description

Hey nice job with this extension.
However I was a bit surprised the web view splitted the screen and created a new tab group, wich is not the standard behavior for opening new editors in vscode.
It would be nice if we can choose instead to open the view as a normal tab in the current group.
Greetings.

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by locating where the extension opens its browser preview and how it creates a new VS Code tab group; add a user-selectable option for opening the view in the current group, then verify both behaviors manually in VS Code.
