The grey bar at the top that says "this is an untrusted workspace" is really annoying & encourages users to trust all workspaces.

It's intentionally prominent as you're in a potentially very degraded experience. You can just click the x to hide it which is remembered the next time you open the folder. Not having this banner be really obvious would lead to frustrated users who accidentally/unknowingly ended up in this state and silly bug reports wasting everyone's time about language services and the like not working.
imo there's nothing "degraded" about editing text without arbitrary code execution. that's what text editors are supposed to do.
Visual Studio Code was announced from day one as a lightweight development environment, not as a "text editor".
