Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Virtual workspaces and Live Share connections cause the extension to disable itself due to lack of support, with the message: "This extension has been disabled because it does not support virtual workspaces." This causes intellisense for C# and .NET to stop. The latest mention I can find on this issue (disabling the support at the time) was in 2021.

My team supports many legacy .NET Framework projects. I use a Mac to work on the frontend projects, but have to balance between that and a Windows machine to handle the rest. I recently tried using live share links to handle the editing and debugging on my Mac for everything, which works pretty well. The only missing feature(s) is intellisense and the Solution Explorer. Not sure if this is something that gets better handled on a remote session using a VSCode Windows client connection, but if it did work I imagine Mac would work okay as well.

Describe the solution you would like

Ideally, and at minimum, I'd love to have intellisense when debugging/editing .NET sessions through a live share in Visual Studio on Windows to VSCode on my Mac. The full solution explorer would also be a nice feature to have. I think the only gap is the lack of virtual workspace support.

Applicable Scenarios

Using a Live Share link generated in Visual Studio 2022 for a .NET Framework 4.8 project, opened on a VSCode Mac client machine on the same network.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I'm not aware of any third-party extensions that provide C#/.NET intellisense, much less any that support a live share connection or virtual workspaces. The unofficial Solution Explorer extension also does not handle live share connections but does not provide the unsupported attribution that the C# DevKit does.
