We should add optional support for the Files extension to support client based file loading.
This would mostly allow gopls to run in a server mode that did not need to read a disk.
We woud have to solve the running of go list beneath packages as a separate problem before the benefit was truly realized.

I don't think we're going to do this any time soon. IIUC, users who need this type of functionality (e.g. internal to Google) achieve it using a VFS, or work in a remote VS Code environment (https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/remote-overview).

Therefore, this project would be a tremendous technical lift for marginal benefit. Closing as infeasible / obsolete.
