[Feature request] Make inline chat into a dumb chatbot that can edit code #57

Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
For the last year, I've been trying to use the "Inline chat" (Ctrl+I) feature, and could NEVER figure out the way it's supposed to be used. The inline chat often reports "no results, please refine your input and try again", or hangs seemingly infinitely.

in contrast, the Github copilot window (Available with Ctrl+Maj+I) and ChatGPT work wonder.

The tasks I'm trying to do are very simple, like "refactor this forEach() into a classic for loop", so I don't understand how the inline chat could struggle so much.

Describe the solution you'd like
I'd like the Inline Chat to act like normal chatbots. I just want it to edit my code in-place.

Describe alternatives you've considered

  • Using the full-blown Github Copilot Window
  • Using classical chatbots
