We've had plans to emit browser prompts on StdIn in notebook mode because the current experience is confusing: #572.

But should we do this in console mode too? This would help with:

Things to consider:

  • Completions within debug prompts. Currently R completions are disabled in readline prompts but we'd want those in debug prompts.

  • R code evaluated from an editor during a debug session should be sent directly to the browser prompt instead of being enqueued on the frontend's list of pending inputs.

This special behaviour could be maintained by adding a custom field to the stdin request to indicate this nested prompt is expecting R code.

Also what experience do we want for notebooks? Note that currently stdin prompts do not seem to work in Positron: posit-dev/positron#4920.
