Description

On Windows, GoTo only suggests subdirectories if you use \ as the path separator. The goal of this issue is to make it so GoTo also suggests them when you use /.

Research direction

Locate the GoTo implementation and its subdirectory-suggestion logic, then reproduce the behavior on Windows using both backslash and slash separators. Done means GoTo suggests subdirectories when the path uses / as well as when it uses \; add or run the relevant tests if the project provides them.
