Kernel selection dialog: Show current kernel as well

[aeschli]

Testing #7373

Just a UI suggestion. Feel free to close if this was already discussed.

Following #8032, I installed some environments and opened a Jupyter notebook.
Clicking on the environments brings the 'Kernel change dialog'. It shows all kernels except the currently selected one.

I found that filtering teh current one is a but strange. Comparing this to other selection dialogs, e.g. the editor language mode, or the theme selection dialog, git branch dialog, we always show the current one as well.

The current one can be marked specially or selected initially. It allows the user to better compare the options, keeps the list stable in appearance and allows the user to select the current one, after considering other options.

Thanks, the current selected one is displayed if you had previously selected one. It'll be suffixed with the text selected, it's not on the top thought.

Closing as there's been a lot of discussion around where and how this needs to be displayed.

Thanks for the suggestion.

It looks like the selected one is always filtered.

Maybe move the issue to Core if that's where the list is rendered.

looks like the selected one is always filtered.

Did you exclude this (env1) from the list (ie was it filtered out from the list of kernels using the new UI?)
