Truncated lines are not obvious in the text editor #162320

Testing microsoft/vscode-jupyter#11463, I (re)learned today that we truncate long lines.

My setup:

  1. Open insiders.vscode.dev
  2. Install Jupyter and Python extensions
  3. Create a new untitled jupyter notebook
  4. Create a markdown cell
  5. Paste image
  6. Save notebook
  7. Reopen notebook with text editor
  8. Switch off line wrapping
  9. Search for character sequence is in the text editor

-> At some point you reach the end of the truncated line without being aware what's happening. It feels like the editor stops responding. See recording here: https://share.cleanshot.com/g4qxRZ

When I checkout the warning about tokenization and look at the setting, I don't learn that the line is truncated.
