So, it looks like if you try and add a kernel for a virtualenv that doesn't have ipykernel installed you immediately install it in the virtualenv with `pip`

It would be great if you asked the user before doing this. My environments are usually managed by one of poetry or pipenv or nix, not pip. Which means now my lock files and installed stuff is out of sync.

Great feedback, thank you. I've heard this before. I'm thinking of keeping the default but adding an option in settings to "ask before installation" for users who prefer that behaviour (similar to VS Code).

Maybe the first time it happens you pop up with a confirmation dialog and it has a checkbox that says something like “always ask” (and an option in the settings).
