File Structure Overview for Python Files

[vsfeedback]

This issue has been moved from a ticket on Developer Community.

It would be great to have a feature like the "Class View" (which is available for C# etc.) also for Python files. PyCharm has a so called "Structure" view, which lists all definitions in the currently open file (as shown in the screenshot below). This helps a lot with navigating through larger files.

This is a dupe of #6551. I will mark it as an enhancement.

I'm not sure whether #6551 is a duplicate. I was rather thinking of a separate view for Python files as sidebar, like the "Class View" for C# or the "Structure" view in PyCharm.

It might not be different functionally, but I think it's a big difference in usability.

Thanks for the clarification, I will move this issue to discussion as an enhancement request for comments and upvotes.
