I'm not being harsh.  Your report is really the first time I ever heard
about this particular problem and there is more than a thousand issues in
the Eglot tracker, and I analyzed all of them (even if briefly).
So it's literally one-off and it's uncommon become one in thousands counts
as uncommon to me.

But that doesn't mean I'm not invested in solving it, now that you've
told me how serious a problem it is for you.  I just don't want to do it
at the cost of breakage to other users who AFAICT have NOT complained
about this (me included).

I don't track lsp-mode repo, as you may understand.  I barely have time
for Eglot.

Great idea!
