Feature Request: Allow outline panel to show access specifier (i.e. private, public, protected) #7120
Description
I found #3117 and microsoft/vscode#113845 discussing similar problem. Actually I only want some extra small, grey text showing private or public beside the names of class members, just like what "declaration" does now.
Screenshots
Displaying other keywords, such as override, virtual would also be helpful.

Looks like the private/public data isn't immediately available with our current implementation so we'd have to investigate how to get that from our database.

It's kind of related to #1955
In VS, there will be a lock icon on private/protected member, in both the object view and the auto completion pop-up.
Would be nice to see in vscode too.

HO-COOH Thanks for you comment -- it made me realize that VS had it, so the data must be easily obtainable in our database, and I was able to locate it when I looked again.
Icons are being tracked by microsoft/vscode#113845

private/protected labels are shown with https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-cpptools/releases/tag/1.4.0-insiders3 (public is the default and is not shown).

FYI, this only works in the definition of the class/struct, and the scope modifiers don't appear in the implementation of methods that are in a separate .cpp file (handling that case would probably be a VS bug since they don't even support that).
