Meta issue with set of ideas that we want to try out to make the Help menu more useful for beginners.

  • On Mac, the search field only covers application menu items, not the rich set of commands.
    • Could we improve visibility by adding a "Search Commands" entry for extra visibility across all platforms.
  • Welcome is not a common entry for tutorials.
    • Could we Getting Started be a better name?
  • Interactive Playground could sound very ominous, while it is one of the best ways to quickly learn all the ins and outs of VS Code's editing capabilities.
    • Would more users discover it with a better name? Maybe just Playground?
