Cannot auth if vscode.dev is in iframe

[DawidMazur]

ADD ISSUE DESCRIPTION HERE

Hi
I noticed that there is a problem with github authentication when the page is in iframe, the external window is displayed for a while, it disappears but authentication doesn't go any further.

Tested on localhost (by xampp with standard configuration)

Yeah embedding vscode.dev in an iframe is not a supported scenario for us at this time.

We may explore this in the future but it would take a considerable amount of work to get right.

cc @bamurtaugh do we have a issue around this? Otherwise, I can keep this open.

@TylerLeonhardt Let's keep this issue open - I don't think we have another.

Nuxt team has been working on nuxt-dev-tools project, we are trying to embed vscode.dev in our devtools nuxt/devtools#38 so that users can edit codes directly in the browser and get all the vs code benefits while debugging or developing.

At the moment, this can't be achieved with vscode.dev due to this issue. we would like to know the way forwad

Just to provide two simple use cases for this:

• Developer on a single-screen machine (like a laptop): they have both vscode and browser open and usually they need to alt-tab back and forth to check things. Embedding vscode inside an iframe of nuxt-devtools we could have vscode floating in our browser window and speed up the development.
• Developer on the go: the developer only has a windows desktop and a mobile tablet, since there is no direct support for code-server on windows, vscode tunnel is the only other option. They could open a tunnel connection for both vscode and node port, and opening up only the second link, while being able to use vscode inside the iframe in nuxt-devtools. Having only one browser tab for this job would greatly improve the battery consumption on mobile devices and let them develop longer.
