Read only/read write indicator in status bar #17621

  • VSCode Version: 1.8.1
  • OS Version: Window 7 Professional

Request to add a RW/RO indicator to right side of the status bar. Clicking on the indicator could offer the option to change the status of the file disk. If accepted would read/write status of file on disk, if declined would just allow the file to be edited. Similar to SlickEdit.
Similar is already implemented in extension https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=alefragnani.read-only-indicator, but appears on the left and isn't built in as standard.
