Description

It would be nice if extensions would be able to specify a list of commands which would then be passed on to the HoverService so that they are rendered in the hover status bar.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Understand the HoverService and how commands are currently handled in the status bar. Look at existing extension contribution points for status bar items. Implement a new contribution point for commands in the hover tooltip.
