Description

There currently is no intuitive way to find references to a component from within the component.

• One has to know about the special command Svelte: Find Component References
• The regular commands do not work:
  • Go to References (would be equivalent to above command)
  • References: Find All References (has no equivalent, shows references in the side bar)

Proposed solution

• Add a lens at the top of the component file that behaves like that in JS/TS files
  
  • If the count cannot easily be determined dynamically it could just say "Go to references"
  • Essentially already implemented as Svelte: Find Component References
• If there is a way to make the standard commands work, integrate them.
  Since those can be used on other symbols, I was thinking that maybe with the cursor on the <script> tag it could search for component references. Of course still not ideal, as components can just omit that entirely as well...
• If standard commands can not be integrated, maybe add a separate Svelte: ... command that shows references in the side bar, not sure if that is possible either, though.

Alternatives

Stick with Svelte: Find Component References and global search, if a more persistent list is required (e.g. for checking every single usage site).
