Description

_This issue has been moved from [a ticket on Developer Community](https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/t/Visual-F-Go-to-definition-from-Source-L/10733723)._

[severity:Multiple people on my team are impacted (internal MSFT only)]
When `Debugging` options `Enable Just My Code` is off and `Enable Source Link support` is on, we are able to debug into the source code of .NET packages that have Source Link enabled. In Visual F#, what is not working is we can not "Go to definition" in the editor like we can in Visual C# and in JetBrains Rider. We really need to be able to navigate to the source code from the Visual F# editor. It is a major productivity hindrance to not have it working. Related GitHub issues:
