So this is all directories under a workspace folder? Any noticeable hit to performance on a large repo? Do we need to exclude database source archives?

Nothing noticeable. I renamed the ql folder that is a submodule in the starter repo and there was no noticeable lag in the file explorer. The test explorer itself took a few seconds to update, but I think that's fair because it needs to re-discover the entire tree.

We don't need to do any special handling for source archives since they are readonly and aren't watched for changes.
