Feedback Issue: Project-level environment variables

[mikenikles]

Objective

This issue is to track feedback related to project-level environment variables.

Are project environment variables not accessible in the same way that regular environment variables are? I set up a bunch of project environment variables and made them visible in workspaces but they are not showing up with my other variables.

The documentation for this is pretty short. I imagine it's probably possible to add something like:

env:
    - PATH: /workspace/something

to the .gitpod.yml file to set environment variables across the whole gitpod workspace (so that even the language server running inside VSCode will see it), but without an example in the documentation I can't be sure.
