Currently dev containers are started without the built-in plugins of the "parent" application (e.g. Theia IDE).
This leads to the application behaving differently than outside of the dev container, for example the syntax highlighting is missing.
I do not think, that the creator of the devcontainer.json file should be responsible for specifying the built-in plugins, as one would expect that they are "part of the application".
Steps to Reproduce:
Open a dev container
Observe that there are no built-in plugins displayed in the extension view
Check that plugins are not installed (e.g. settings page, no syntax highlighting, etc..)

Thanks for the fast reply. I replicated it with Theia IDE 1.53.100 as well(also updated the ticket).
I will take a detailed look at the PR you linked in a minute, but would you expect this to work automatically with any product or are there some requirements on the products side to configure this/install the plugins in a certain way?
It might be that the localDir call here behaves somehow unexpected in a packaged environment. Generally, there is no configuration necessary for this feature to work.
