Currently vscode doesn't support dynamic imports, so it isn't possible for a javascript provider to opt-in to more advanced user experience via the vscode APIs.
Until we can more easily opt-in to vscode support, we expose the vscode API via node's global object. We want to see what sort of APIs get used from vscode in providers, and will then likely evolve a first class editor abstraction.
