Inconsistant Code Chunk Intsert Behavior in Quarto Source / Visual mode

Bug description

https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/4b90e1cc-45a1-4b3c-a35c-2664d22cf4fe

In source mode in Quarto, it remembers the previous code chunk’s language.
However, in visual mode, it doesn’t remember the previous chunk’s language. I hope it behaves similarly to source mode.

Additionally, I couldn’t find the default Positron keymap for inserting a code chunk in visual mode (the default hotkey in source mode instead inserts an image). Instead, I use the RStudio keymap in visual mode, even though I don’t use the RStudio keymap in Positron. I hope this keybinding inconsistency is considered as well. :)

I initially posted this issue to Positron and it was rather suggested to be reported here:

Steps to reproduce

See above screen recordings

Actual behavior

See above screen recordings

Expected behavior

In visual mode, it should remember previous language as in source mode. Also, it should have consistent hotkeys.

Start with the linked screen recordings and compare Quarto code-chunk insertion in source and visual modes, then inspect the Positron and RStudio keymap behavior described in the report. Done means visual mode remembers the previous chunk language and the insertion hotkeys are consistent.
