Revisit notebook cell uris #97881

Description

@jrieken

Today, notebook cell have the following URI format

vscode-notebook-cell://<notebook-authority>/<notebook-path>, cell <handle>?<payload>

This makes then

  • render in the UI like some/path/someNotebook.foo, cell 12
  • makes a cell a different resource - by the rules of URI

The downsides are

  • The cell handle appears in the UI and that's something users can not really relate to
  • A cell is inside the notebook, not a different resource, using fragments is the better fit
  • Grouping is often (but not always) bogous (see screen shot below)

The plan is to use a URI format for notebook cells that do not make them appear as separate things but make them appears as the notebook itself
