Description

The scrollbar option can hide the vertical scrollbar, but the space is still there.

scrollbar: {
      vertical: 'hidden',
}

Can I remove the vertical scrollbar as well as the corresponding space?

Research direction

The request identifies the scrollbar option scrollbar.vertical: 'hidden', but provides no Playground link, code sample, files, or tests. Start by reproducing this configuration in a Monaco Editor example and inspect how hiding the vertical scrollbar affects the reserved space; done means the scrollbar and its corresponding space are both removed.
