Description

I showed the Edge Devtools and js-debug intregration today. Something that came up was the fact that there's two command palettes; if you ctrl+shift+p in the devtools editor, you get a different palette than you do in VS Code.

It would be nice to integrate the commands from the devtools into VS Code command's palette, or at least use quickpicks, for a more consistent experience.

Research direction

Start by comparing the commands shown by Ctrl+Shift+P in the DevTools editor with the VS Code command palette. Check whether the DevTools commands can be integrated into the VS Code palette or exposed through quick picks, and consider the work done when the command experience is consistent between both contexts.
