[suggestion/ask for help] Pop up before prepare data for go.import

[szyhf]

If there lots packages in GOPATH/src, while using go.import, the dialog for search always pop up after seconds delay. Then while waiting the dialog pop up, I always type the keyword I want to search in current editor, then the dialog show up.

That case lots of mistake type while focus on working.

I think its preparing data for search, but how about pop up as soon as press the hotkey of go.import, and user can type the keyword for search immediately while the background prepare the data for search.

I tried to fix it by myself but failed unless delete some of go packages.

Thanks a lot for helping 0.0

Thanks for reporting this @szyhf, good observation.

The fix is now out in the latest update to the Go extension (0.6.81)

The Go: Add Import feature will use the cached packages that get created by the auto-completion feature which also needs the packages. The only time it might still be slow is when used for the first time even before typing any code.
