I'm almost comfortable with the choice of metrics, except for:

>> The name of each item opened in a pane such as EditorView, SettingsView, and MarkdownPreviewView <<

Why would they need to know my filenames?

I _think_ they're talking about the actual 'atoms' - that is the editor components. So the data that will be sent to google is 'EditorView is open', not 'EditorView contains these files'.

I might be wrong though.

You're absolutely right. We don't track individual filenames or data.
