allow bookmarks creation in Jupyter files (.ipynb)

[JoopBanaan]

I like to create bookmarks as well in Jupyter files (extension .ipynb)
Currently (version 11.1) I get a pop up "open a file first to toggle bookmarks"

Hi @JoopBanaan ,

I’m not aware about how Jupyter Notebooks works, but looking at VS Code announcement (https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/python/jupyter-support) and looking it open issues in VS Code repository, it seems to be a WebView with some pieces of editable source code, so I guess you are trying to add bookmarks in that editable source code, right?

If that’s the case, I guess this issue recently opened in VS Code repository may be the reason (microsoft/vscode#96532). BTW, the Notebook API is still in early stages (microsoft/vscode#93265 api-proposal to be precise), so it would take some time (at least May, based on the milestone attached to the issue) to have something to work with.

I just wonder how each ActiveTextEditor will be announced for extensions, because today, each one refers to one file in file system, and with Jupyter Notebook, it could end up with many ActiveTextEditor referring to the same file in file system.

So, I need to help at least until May/June, after the oficial API is released, to take a look at this.

Hope this helps
