(in case someone's trying some kind of vscode integration)
Just a note about 'force open' a particular file when writing a vscode 
extension: I just spent time reading about vsCode's definition and 
behaviour of what it considers a 'workspace', and also, a project's root 
folder.

Turns out that by default, they are the same, the root folder you've 
opened, lets say a project's folder, is what it considers its workspace and 
that there can only be one workspace at a time in an opened instance of 
vscode. 

But most importantly, when changed it *restarts* all extensions! oops! Goes 
to show i'm pretty new to vscode! 
That's what kept me from being able to 'force open' properly a view of my 
body text from a virtual filesystem. (i used a workspace-changing function 
to open it instead of a simpler 'open file' thingy function...)
