Option to specify project-wide jupyter: kernel

[pat-alt]

Currently Jupyter kernels need to be specified on a per-document basis. In other words, specifying the Jupyter kernel in _quarto.yml or _metadata.yml has no effect: see this example where the kernel defaults to the default kernel julia-1.6 for the document without jupyter explicitly declared in the YAML header. Is this a deliberate design choice? Is there anything that speaks against specifying kernels for multiple documents?

Background: I'm using Quarto to document my Julia packages. Being able to to control the Julia version for all my docs at once would give me a way to check locally if all code chunks execute successfully for that version.

It should be possible to do something like this, and your document structure looks good to me. Feels like it's a bug on our side. I'll create an issue to track.

@pat-alt thanks for the report. This is now fixed on main.

Closing as completed and in favour of #2853.
