--- Comment #6 from Kai Uwe Broulik <[email protected]> ---
The easiest way to add an association is actually though the file properties
dialog. 

Right click a folder -> Properties -> Open With App [Change] -> Add VS Code.

I believe the reason VSCode doesn't announce folders is that it doesnt want to
steal the association from the file manager. There's no priority mechanism for
an app to say "I can open this but please don't make me the default app for
it". So if you installed VSCode chances are it would suddenly open all folders
which is definitely not what we want.

It's also why when I added support for opening Windows ExE files I did not as
it to its mime type list because I didn't want to potentially break everyone
using Wine.
