Vscode-jupyter: Native Experience - Right click on cell should have a context menu (copy/paste)

I also notice that all shortcuts keys are not working either

• The simplest example is that I can't even paste code into the interactive cells. (Copy and paste are not working)
• I can't open command palette using shortcuts

In addition to the regular context menu, it would be great if the context menu provided some cell-specific options like:

• Run cell (control-enter)
• Run cell and add below (shift-enter)
• Toggle cell type markdown/code
• Remove cell
• Duplicate cell

You name it.

Was anyone able to resolve this? I'm using Python v2020.8.109390 extension in VSC 1.50.0-insider on macOS Catalina (v10.15.6).

For people who see this in future: I just found that commenting code blocks with #%% while working with .py files in VS creates interactive cells and allows same level of interaction as jupyter notebooks. Hence, I would mark my problem as solved.

Over one year still no one fixed it?

This might be a workaround. Not a fix.

It would be really great to have this issue resolved, since most users perfer to work in VS code notebooks, but the lack of functionalities in comprison to jupyter notebooks and Google Colab, hinder the use of notebooks in VS code
