Opening new directories from the command line on macOS does not bring the window to the foreground

vscodenpa commented 2 years ago

Issue Type: Bug

I believe this problem has been introduced fairly recently. Everyone at my workplace is experiencing the same issue, so I don't believe it has to do with my particular VSCode setup. Basically, under macOS, with the latest stable VSCode:

Have VSCode open, with directory A open in an existing VSCode window.
Use code . to open a new VSCode window to directory B.
The new VSCode window should open in the foreground, but it opens in the background instead.
