vscode.dev's "Open Folder" could use webkitdirectory #194046

When you go to https://vscode.dev/ and click the big "Open Folder" button; it would be best if it allowed you to select a local folder using webkitdirectory. Cloudflare does this for uploading an entire folder to a 'Cloudflare Page' to support directories.

I really like what you guys did with resuming your previous - including recovering any unsaved code. This can work with localStorage, even if you can recover just the most recent file i was working on - that would be worth its weight in gold. But, you know this is all beta, better to save it as a buffer with the best effort

For downloading the project, you don't really need a repo, the project can live in a browser buffer and then you can export as a zip:
https://gildas-lormeau.github.io/zip.js

What you get for free is now Cloudflare will allow you to deploy a .zip, so this workflow of using https://vscode.dev/ with Cloudflare pages means you don't have to install anything in order to make code changes to your website. --- Which is epic.
