For example, It's required to install missing dart SDK for VS Code dart extension.

Should env.openExternal in Theia do the same as in VS Code, i.e. use the OS' default application for opening a given URI? I am trying to use this call in a VS Code extension and in Theia files seem to always be opened within Theia (while in VS Code they open open in external apps).

@chroberino It is supposed to work exactly as in vscode. If it doesn't, please create a new bug report for this.
