Possible enhancement (I might devote some time to this later this month)

I think it would be useful to allow the extension to choose a port number on start up.

It could then populate an environment variable with the value (say maybe $VSCODE_REMOTE_EDIT_PORT) and/or display this in the status bar

This would allow environment variables to be used to setup port forwarding for ssh sessions like this:

$ ssh -R $VSCODE_REMOTE_EDIT_PORT:localhost:$VSCODE_REMOTE_EDIT_PORT user@remoteHost

This would allow different ssh sessions to quickly and easily target different vscode windows, which I think would be useful
