Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported Azure ML workspace flow: open a python-file, then open a Notebook, and check whether the file becomes uneditable after closing the tabs. No source file or test is named; done would mean identifying the cause and restoring editing without restarting the workspace.

Description

When I create a python-file in my Azure-ML workspace and open it, I can write in it and save it no problem. As soon as I open a Notebook however it completely freezes. I can't write or delete anything. Even after closing all the tabs and reopening the python-file it's still frozen.
The only thing that helps is completely closing the workspace, going back to the portal and restarting the workspace.
This bug is 100% reproducible on my end.
