What did you do?

Ask if it was possible to opt-in to gopls pre-release versions similar to how Visual Studio Code - Insiders handles PowerShell extension updates:

• PowerShell
  • the stable extension
• PowerShell Preview
  • a semi-regular update of pre-release extension code updates

A toggle within Visual Studio Code to allow pre-release versions of gopls would be useful, if not offering a separate "preview" extension that offers the latest of stable or pre-release builds of gopls.

What did you expect to see?

Option for installation of pre-release versions.

What did you see instead?

Offered gopls releases appear to be limited to stable releases.

Other

I understand that the behavior I am describing appears to be centered on Visual Studio Code specifically, but I assume that there would need to be integration of some kind between this official project and the Visual Studio Code extension.
