Milestone
We need to remove node dependencies of the renderer for our sandbox effort. Search is currently a process that is triggered from the renderer (via
vs/workbench/services/search/electron-browser/searchService
et al). Going forward, we should move this into one of the processes that is allowed to execute node:Filing this to get a discussion starting how to tackle this. With terminals moved, @Tyriar and @meganrogge have demonstrated that the shared process is a viable host for native processes and the patterns used for terminals can be applied to this one as well.
#116337 has a diagram for how the shared process today is being used as host for privileged processes.
