Description
Currently when you connect to a SSH host, you land in an empty window. From here you can then open a folder or open a workspace on the remote host.
While this makes sense in principal, in talking with @chrisdias and seeing a few people do it for the first time, it's not immediately obvious what to do next. This creates a rough on-boarding experience for new users.
I'd propose we instead:
- Connect as we do now
- Once the connection is complete, trigger "Open Folder" on the remote host
- If developers do not want to open a folder, they can then hit "ESC" and do something else instead.
Once you've initially opened a folder or workspace, you can access it again via the SSH explorer, so optimizing for the first time experience seems to make sense here.
