Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with the Command Palette's Search files (Indexer) extension and reproduce Open in Peek from a selected file, using the More commands menu or Ctrl+Space in a Visual Studio dev build. Trace the Open in Peek entry point and verify that the selected file is passed to Peek. Done means Command Palette closes and Peek opens the selected file.
