Looking forward to when they finally catch up with Eclipse and Netbeans, and finally allow for mixed mode debugging with native code.

IntelliJ is so big and complex and needs to support lots of plugins, it's probably not much fun to work on it.
In fact, I think VSCode is one of the best things to ever happen to JetBrains. In particular, Live Share forced them to finally respond with their equivalent product Code With Me (several years too late, but at least it's here).
Without VSC, I don't think JetBrains would be responding nearly as well. It's baffling they consider themselves a full-feature IDE product while having an inferior alpha live share that was rushed through only in response to competition. It's been suggested for years.
