Summary
Hi there,
During PSConfEU there was a demo about VSCode and I was following along and I realized that for conditional breakpoints there seems to be a bug where $_ would not be recognized in the queries. If I would use the conditional breakpoint in a foreach loop (keyword) it would work no problem with the loop variable. The issue as far as I can see only exist in Foreach-Object within the pipeline.

Steps to Reproduce
I can run this piece of code:
$numbers = 1..100
foreach($number in $numbers){
write-host $number
}
with the following conditional breakpoint on the line within the loop:
$number -eq 100
And the breakpoint will hit as expected. If I change up my code to use Foreach-Object. It will no longer hit.
1..100 | ForEach-Object {
write-host $_
}
with the following expression:
$_ -eq 5
