After getting more comfortable with awslogs, I am wondering if there's a way to actually open up or bring a terminal to the code editor view. For example, here's what I see in my iTerm2 app:

I don't really use iterm2 too much if I have to do some editing of files, but having this inside of VS Code in a tab would be really nice. Just would allow me to make changes to the Dockerfile and monitor the progress of the build from AWS.

Here's where I would like it to go:

I understand that this isn't really a "terminal" spot per se since it's typically at the bottom, but I was just curious to see if there was a way to do it without affecting the terminal on the bottom. In some rare cases it would be nice to attach to a tmux session from the code editor window so I can flip between that and code.

In the Insiders build now, and so presumably will be in v1.58, is the ability to put a terminal into an editor like you ask. You can also drag a terminal into the editor area to crop it there!

There are these commands:

Terminal: MoveTerminal into Editor Group
Terminal: Create Terminal Editor
workbench.action.terminal.moveToEditorInstance
