Describe the issue:

Steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. Start 2 R sessions
  2. Start 1 Python session
  3. Go to 1st R session and type q() in console
  4. Verify session state is exited (red dot) - PASS
  5. Click on 2nd R session and open + session menu
  6. Verify 2 entries: R and Python session
  7. Click on 1st R session and open + session menu
  8. Verify 2 entries: R and Python session - FAIL

Expected or desired behavior:

We should show top 5 (deduped) active sessions in the menu, but we are filtering out all instances of the R session because the one we have currently selected has exited

Were there any error messages in the UI, Output panel, or Developer Tools console?
