While developing components that span across multiple files (.ts, .html, .css), it is quite common to need to open all related files for a given component. In Sublime, this is achieved by pressing ctrl+right-arrow while highlighting a result in their "quick open" panel. This opens the highlighted file in a background tab while keeping the existing results set open.

In VSCode, you have to perform the same query multiple times, each time selecting the next file.
