Description
## Problem
Having to go to a dedicated view, having to right click and having the log open alongside source code is unacceptable.
## Expected behavior
In the Jetbrains version you can just double click the log group and then the logstream right next to it, and it doesn't clutter the code tabs, and you can browse the groups right alongside the project (or other) view, i.e. not break the workflow. This is also rather primitive but at least it's acceptable.
Coming from the Jetbrains version to the VSCode version the plugin is just impossibly annoying to work with.

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the CloudWatch log group and log stream views in the VS Code extension, then determine how a separate panel with its own tabs would fit the existing workflow; done means groups and streams can be opened beside the project without cluttering code tabs.
