Description

I am using VS Code 1.84.2, Quarto 1.4.451, and Quarto extension 1.107.0. When I try to switch to Visual Mode, I see Activating Extensions... in the status bar, and then it goes away. The editor does not change its mode in any way. I created a screen recording of how it "works" on my machine. Not sure what I am doing wrong.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue with VS Code 1.84.2, Quarto 1.4.451, and extension 1.107.0, starting from the Visual Mode activation path. Compare the observed behavior with a working switch to Visual Mode; done means the editor changes mode without leaving activation stuck or silently failing.
