I think that it makes sense to have non-standard and perhaps not even
well specified (?) extensions to LSP as part of a separate package that
is not part of the core, so that it can adjust to changes in the
implementations that provide these extensions more quickly. I don't
know what the working procedure is for LSP, but if they do get added to
the standard, it should be easy to move the code from eglot-x to eglot,
if the package is on GNU ELPA.
