Formatting support for mongodb playground files.
There's no way that I can find to format the code in a .mongodb playground file.
At present, I need to manually change the file suffix to js, then use a hot-key to run prettier, then rename it back.
If there is a better way, I'd love to know it!
Thanks,
Kim

Suggestion:
1. Could please make "mongodb" as subtype of "javascript" so that did does not break the playground feature, and at the same time get all the features associated with javascript. (https://github.com/mongodb-js/vscode/issues/122#issuecomment-679909456)
2. You could support any formatter with following"[mongodb]": {
"editor.defaultFormatter": "vscode.typescript-language-features"
}, -

Thanks for the tip @Massimiliano.
I think most folks are working with Prettier these days.
It might be best to try to look in that direction.

Right now we don't have a built-in formatter. However, there is a workaround: with the beautify extension (https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=HookyQR.beautify) you can format the file without changing the file extension (Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + P > Beautify file > JS).
