Description

Hey all,

it would be real nice to be able to navigate from a diagnostic to extended information specified in the CodeDescription field. To achieve this, vscode and Sublime Text just display the Diagnostic.Code field as a link that links to the CodeDescription. Would it be possible to implement this for the problems view and maybe the LSP marker?

This is how it looks in these tools:

Research direction

Start by locating the Problems view and LSP marker handling that consume diagnostics, then trace how Diagnostic.code and CodeDescription are represented. Done means CodeDescription links can be opened from the diagnostic code in the Problems view and, where supported, the LSP marker.
