Bring back "Explain" in VS Code Extension #507

Open anikaks opened 2 years ago

anikaks commented 2 years ago

We had an "Explain" code lens (I believe before the language rewrite) which I found quite useful, would like to see this brought back!

@bporterfield What was the "Explain" code lens? Is this what the "Show SQL" code lens does now, or was it something else?

bporterfield commented 1 year ago

I think this, "explain the data" sorta. Perhaps a better word could be chosen. I imagine we took it away because it requires "index" to work, not sure if we've ensured it works everywhere and/or have a way to test for ability to run "index"
