Problem: Can receive dozens of <MouseMove> events for same cell position. #30965
Solution: Leverage check_multiclick() to detect if cell position is unchanged.
Problem:
When tmpdir is local. The returned values from tmpname may already
exist. This can cause problems for tests which pass `create=false` as
they may require the file to not exist yet.
Solution:
When creating tmp names, always remove it to ensure it doesn't exist,
and optionally open it if `create~=false`
Additionally refactor the tmpname code and flattrn some functions into
constants.
Also while debugging this issue. It was discovered that `exec_lua()`
doesn't report error messages properly. This has been fixed.
Problem:
There are three different ways of marking an option as hidden, `enable_if
= false`, `hidden = true` and `immutable = true`. These also have different
behaviors. Options hidden with `enable_if = false` can't have their value
fetched using Vim script or the API, but options hidden with `hidden = true` or
`immutable = true` can. On the other hand, options with `hidden = true` do not
error when trying to set their value, but options with `immutable = true` do.
Solution:
Remove `enable_if = false`, remove the `hidden` property for options, and use
`immutable = true` to mark an option as hidden instead. Also make hidden option
variable pointers always point to the default value, which allows fetching the
value of every hidden option using Vim script and the API. This does also mean
that trying to set a hidden option will now give an error instead of just being
ignored.
while the implementation is not tied to screen chars, it is a reasonable
expectation to support the same size. If nvim is able to display a
multibyte character, it will accept the same character as input,
including in normal mode commands like r{char}
Problem: using wrong highlight group for spaces for popupmenu

- Partition the handlers in vim.lsp.handlers as:
- client to server response handlers (RCS)
- server to client request handlers (RSC)
- server to client notification handlers (NSC)
Note use string indexes instead of protocol.methods for improved
typing in LuaLS (tip: use hover on RCS, RSC or NSC).
Problem: topline might be changed in diff mode unexpectedly
(Jaehwang Jung)
Solution: do not re-calculate topline, when using line() func
in diff mode.

Problem: Selecting an item in the right-click menu when clicking to the
left/right of it is confusing, especially in a UI that doesn't
support 'mousemoveevent'.
Solution: Don't select an item when clicking to the left/right of the
right-click menu.
feat(diagnostics)!: sort underline with severity_sort
BREAKING CHANGE: underline will be applied with a higher value than `vim.hl.priorities.diagnostics`
* deprecate old signatures
* move to new str_byteindex/str_utfindex signature
* use single-underscore name (double-underscore is reserved for Lua itself)
PROBLEM:
There are several limitations to vim.str_byteindex, vim.str_utfindex:
1. They throw given out-of-range indexes. An invalid (often user/lsp-provided)
index doesn't feel exceptional and should be handled by the caller.
`:help dev-error-patterns` suggests that `retval, errmsg` is the preferred
way to handle this kind of failure.
2. They cannot accept an encoding. So LSP needs wrapper functions. #25272
3. The current signatures are not extensible.
* Calling: The function currently uses a fairly opaque boolean value to
indicate to identify the encoding.
* Returns: The fact it can throw requires wrapping in pcall.
4. The current name doesn't follow suggestions in `:h dev-naming` and I think
`get` would be suitable.
SOLUTION:
- Because these are performance-sensitive, don't introduce `opts`.
- Introduce an "overload" that accepts `encoding:string` and
`strict_indexing:bool` params.
```lua
local col = vim.str_utfindex(line, encoding, [index, [no_out_of_range]])
```
Support the old versions by dispatching on the type of argument 2, and
deprecate that form.
```lua
vim.str_utfindex(line) -- (utf-32 length, utf-16 length), deprecated
vim.str_utfindex(line, index) -- (utf-32 index, utf-16 index), deprecated
vim.str_utfindex(line, 'utf-16') -- utf-16 length
vim.str_utfindex(line, 'utf-16', index) -- utf-16 index
vim.str_utfindex(line, 'utf-16', math.huge) -- error: index out of range
vim.str_utfindex(line, 'utf-16', math.huge, false) -- utf-16 length
```
Problem:
`vim.validate()` takes two forms when it only needs one.
Solution:
- Teach the fast form all the features of the spec form.
- Deprecate the spec form.
- General optimizations for both forms.
- Add a `message` argument which can be used alongside or in place
of the `optional` argument.
Problem:
- `vim.highlight` module does not follow `:help dev-name-common`, which
documents the name for "highlight" as "hl".
- Shorter names are usually preferred.
Solution:
Rename `vim.highlight` to `vim.hl`.
This is not a breaking change until 2.0 (or maybe never).
vim-patch:8.2.4744: a terminal window can't use the bell
vim-patch:8.2.4745: using wrong flag for using bell in the terminal
BREAKING CHANGE: Bells from :terminal are now silent by default, unless
'belloff' option doesn't contain "term" or "all".
Problem: Setting title while TUI buffer is almost full may cause the
end of a flush to be treated as a part of an OSC 2 or OSC 0
sequence, leading to problems like invisible cursor.
Solution: Make the whole sequence to set title a unibi_ext string.
Now that #16425 is fixed, use Unicode again to reduce screen height.
Unfortunately composing chars still can't be used, as it turns out that
composing chars may be missing when sent separately from the base char
at the last char a screen line.
**Problem:** Tree-sitter 0.24.0 introduced a new symbol type to denote
supertype nodes (`TSSymbolTypeSupertype`). Now, `language.inspect()`
(and the query `omnifunc`) return supertype symbols, but with double
quotes around them.
**Solution:** Mark a symbol as "named" based on it *not* being an
anonymous node, rather than checking that it is a regular node (which a
supertype also is not).
**Problems:**
- `vim.treesitter.language.inspect()` returns duplicate
symbol names, sometimes up to 6 of one kind in the case of `markdown`
- The list-like `symbols` table can have holes and is thus not even a
valid msgpack table anyway, mentioned in a test
**Solution:** Return symbols as a map, rather than a list, where field
names are the names of the symbol. The boolean value associated with the
field encodes whether or not the symbol is named.
Note that anonymous nodes are surrounded with double quotes (`"`) to
prevent potential collisions with named counterparts that have the same
identifier.
This commit also marks `child_containing_descendant()` as deprecated
(per upstream's documentation), and uses `child_with_descendant()` in
its place. Minimum required tree-sitter version will now be `0.24`.
Problem:
Using a single RPC request to child server isn't enough to prevent race
between nvim_paste and nvim_input.
Solution:
Ensure both child client and child server have processed pending events
by sending an empty DCS response to the child client and waiting for
TermResponse autocommand on the child server.
Problem: on `CompleteDone` cursor can jump to the end of line instead of
the end of the completed word.
Solution: remove only inserted word for snippet expansion instead of everything
until eol.

Problem: Currently completion attribute hl_group is combined with
all items, which is redundant and confusing with kind_hlgroup
Solution: Renamed to abbr_hlgroup and combine it only with the abbr item
(glepnir).

Problem:
- Some servers like LuaLS add unwanted blank lines after multiline
`@param` description.
- List items do not wrap nicely.
Solution:
- When rendering the LSP doc hover, remove blank lines in each `@param`
or `@return`.
- But ensure exactly one empty line before each.
- Set 'breakindent'.
Problem: Lua accessors for
- global, local, and special variables (`vim.{g,t,w,b,v}.*`), and
- options (`vim.{o,bo,wo,opt,opt_local,opt_global}.*`),
do not have command-line completion, unlike their vimscript counterparts
(e.g., `g:`, `b:`, `:set`, `:setlocal`, `:call <fn>`, etc.).
Completion for vimscript functions (`vim.fn.*`) is incomplete and does
not list all the available functions.
Solution: Implement completion for vimscript function, variable and
option accessors in `vim._expand_pat` through:
- `getcompletion()` for variable and vimscript function accessors, and
- `nvim_get_all_options_info()` for option accessors.
Note/Remark:
- Short names for options are yet to be implemented.
- Completions for accessors with handles (e.g. `vim.b[0]`, `vim.wo[0]`)
are also yet to be implemented, and are left as future work, which
involves some refactoring of options.
- For performance reasons, we may want to introduce caching for
completing options, but this is not considered at this time since the
number of the available options is not very big (only ~350) and Lua
completion for option accessors appears to be pretty fast.
- Can we have a more "general" framework for customizing completions?
In the future, we may want to improve the implementation by moving the
core logic for generating completion candidates to each accessor (or
its metatable) or through some central interface, rather than writing
all the accessor-specific completion implementations in a single
function: `vim._expand_pat`.
