Is it somehow possible to use the power of GitHub Copilot within the Xojo IDE?

I think it would be great to have in xojo, natively, at least the possibility to create our own snippets and access them using abbreviations or user-defined keywords.
I’m guessing since there is so little open source code on GitHub for Xojo that CoPilot won’t/can’t support the language.

Something like Deep TapNine (2020: <https://xojo.com/issue/59619>) would work without open sourced code snippets.
Xojo isn’t a supported language.

I‘m sure that can be changed. But as long as the Xojo IDE does not support Plugins which extend the IDE, it won‘t happen…
I can confirm that GitHub Copilot does support Xojo now - just tested with my GitHub Copilot account in Visual Studio Code on MacOS.
While it’s not integrated with the Xojo IDE it’s still easy to copy the code it generates in the chat dialog within Visual Studio Code.

Despite all legitimate concerns, I really wish that the Xojo IDE could support something like this.
