Description

When editing python code cells in .qmd files in vs-code, I would expect to have the full editing capabilities of Python in VScode (go-to-definition, references, etc.). This is currently not the case.

I tried associating .qmd files with Python, but the I lose the Quarto editing assistance.

Research direction

Start by locating the VS Code handling for Python code cells in .qmd files and compare it with the current Quarto editing assistance. The work is done when Python features such as go-to-definition and references work without losing Quarto editing support.
