Vscode-powershell: Execution status indicator no longer appearing/working in status bar

Is it possible that the UI for this API has changed? I do see a blue indicator under the top left when I run things. My suspicion is that our API call still works, but that VSCode has changed the way they present it.

Yeah I can't see where the difference is. Stable it shows up, Preview it doesn't. Even though PSES hits the code path the same way.

FWIW: I'm getting the indicator when I run commands at the PSIC... just not if I run the commands from the editor window.

Easy demo:

in a ps1 file:

Start-Sleep -Seconds 15

Run with either F5 or F8

Copy the command and run it directly in PSIC.

Ah interesting. That's helpful. Thanks @corbob!

I wonder if this is because we have to cancel the PSRL prompt in the F8 example and so the notification is getting fired but since there's a second executionStatus event that gets fired (where the state is Cancelled I think) theres a bit of a race condition.
