Applying a directory C&P feature inside the editor

Type: Feature Request

I noticed that there is a copy and paste feature through the terminal, for obtaining current directories (only the current directory). This feature could also be applied to the top of the script being edited. Ultimately, if you implemented a hierarchical tree file system inside of the "Explorer" tab that currently contains the current working directory. You could remove the the current system, and or could implement a more sophisticated hierarchical tree file system. With the current working directory with a copy and paste text window above the hierarchical tree file system. Then the user could explore their systems files contents from within the application, no need for opening windows to access the files anymore (Unless opening up a selective project). Honestly Even recreating a new tab could allow the user to keep track of their current project directory, and their entire file system. This could be a optional feature, included upon download, as this would allow for use of a singular application needed to be ran while working with Visual Studio Code. Most Developers, more then likely keep well structured directories, and know where their projects files are already at on their device. If they don't, they could save a separate file containing the directories during sessions to easily gather their files instead of locating each and every individual file. Truthfully with your built systems, you could format a typefile saved inside Visual Studios internal features that would allow the user to save this typefile internally, They would be able click the directories within this visual studio type file format that would update the hierarchical tree file system tab, they could then use and save this typefile in between sessions. Making, accessing files, and directories a little bit easier then trying to locate everything through another process.
