User snippets not working for installed PowerShell extension

[daviwil]

It appears that PowerShell user snippets aren't working after the user installs the PowerShell extension from the gallery. I suspect that it has to do with some conflict between the in-box PowerShell support and the installed extension. When the user clicks "User snippets" in the file menu and gets the language selection popup, PowerShell shows up twice:

I think that since there's a single powershell.json for custom user snippets, it's only being used for the in-box PowerShell support.

Any chance there's a user workaround for this before the issue gets addressed?

The problem is that the powershell extension uses a different language identifier.
I created a pull request: PowerShell/vscode-powershell#17

Thanks a lot for sending that pull request Martin! I didn't realize I had registered things wrong, glad it's something that can be fixed on my side.
