Description

Describe the Issue

After now being able to add project references in solution explorer, I'm not able to use SE to remove them from the listed project reference node itself.

Steps To Reproduce
  1. Add a project reference
  2. Right click on the project reference to remove it
Expected Behavior

An option to 'Remove project reference'

Actual Behavior:

  • I can remove from command palette and from the project context menu itself, but removing from the Project Reference node is not possible.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in Solution Explorer: add a project reference, then inspect the project reference node's context menu. Compare its available actions with the command palette and project context menu, and consider the issue done when the node itself offers removal and the reference is removed successfully.
