Description

When we are selecting the option "Restart and Run all cells" it is getting halted at the cell in which there is error. But if that cell in which error occurred is independent from other cells, ideally it shouldn't stop there. So I think it should try to run all the cells, instead of getting halted at error cell.

Also if it can show the correlation between cells while halting at error, will be more helpful. For example if cell 2 is halted because if error in cell 1, if it can throw that in error message it is helpful.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the “Restart and Run all cells” command with an independent cell that errors, then trace the notebook execution entry point that decides whether to continue. Done means independent cells still run after an error and dependent-cell halts identify the originating error in the message.
