Great, that means the function only needs to look at one particular file which 
is guaranteed to exist unless the lsp server is not run.  Note, though, that 
there might be a need for a defcustom on the godot version in effect because it 
is possible that a user does not have the newest environment installed, right?

That is my opinion as someone who happens to regularly use Emacs in the past 
few years.  This should be João’s decision to make, since he is the maintainer 
of eglot.
