   We are working towards giving preference to Photoshop for editing linked images, if Ps is installed. This may mean the label showing as ‘Edit on Photoshop’ when an linked image is selected. The change does not affect OS level file type associations.

   Still no movement on this issue? - REALLY?
   This is a basic function that is, not only, currently available with InDesign - but was featured over two decades ago from Illustrator's then competitor MacroMedia Freehand, which Adobe then acquired. An ongoing irritant for nearly 20 years now and with the innumerable updates Illustrator has gone through during that time - this is still overlooked. The basis for the coding should be readily available to them via InDesign or the old acquired Freehand software, it just appears the lack of will or care to even implement it.
