Problem: - "bufwrite" message identifier is encoded in the message ID
of a "progress" kind message (since ff68fd6b); UI2 does not
allow routing by message ID.
- No documented way to set a default message target for all
but a few kinds (without copying all of |ui-messages| kinds
to cfg.msg.targets).
- A user adding a message route for the documented empty ""
kind can result in unexpected behavior.
- Showing duplicate message (x) indicator in msg and cmd
targets simultaneously is unsupported.
- Manually triggering CursorMoved autocommand to add matchparen
highlighting in the cmdline.
Solution: - Match cfg.msg.targets keys as Lua pattern to a message ID.
- Recognize "default" as key in cfg.msg.targets, drop the
undocumented cfg.msg.target field.
- Don't try to get configured target for "" message kind/trigger.
- Maintain msg indicator virtual text for the cmd and msg target.
- Add matchparen highlighting by directly calling the Lua module
(possible since b813c7e0).
Problem:
Regression from c822a2657c: `vim.wait(0)` does not call `loop_poll`,
so `vim.wait(1)` is needed to "yield" from Lua.
Solution:
- Ensure that `vim._core.loop_poll()` is always called, even when `time=0`.
- Document how to interrupt Lua code (ctrl-c).

Problem:
Currently, it only supports sending requests using the current cursor position as a parameter.
Solution:
Support sending requests using arbitrary positions.
Problem: <Esc> in a Select-mode tabstop leaves the session and highlight active.
CursorMoved isn’t triggered since the cursor doesn’t move.
Solution: use ModeChanged (s:n) instead. Defer with vim.schedule() to avoid transient
s:n from jump().
Problem: The default match limit of 256 can be too low for realistic
use cases, but was necessary to guard against catastrophic
performance cliffs.
Solution: Performance cliffs were fixed in upstream tree-sitter 0.27+,
so remove the fallback limit to return unlimited matches by default.
Problem: Crash with invalid shellredir/shellpipe value
(bfredl)
Solution: Validate the option and allow only a single "%s".

Problem: 'findfunc' only allows extra info for cmdline completion, not
for actually finding files (Maxim Kim, after 9.2.0451).
Solution: Handle returning a list of dicts when actually finding files.
Also fix crash on NULL string (zeertzjq).

Problem: 'findfunc' can't return extra info for cmdline completion
(Maxim Kim).
Solution: Handle 'findfunc' return value in cmdline completion like that
of "customlist" functions (zeertzjq).

Problem: Trying to execute code action on an active plugin without
updates leads to nothing. It is more useful if code actions "do
something" on a bigger portion of the confirm buffer.
Solution: Suggest "delete" code action even for active plugins. Trying
to execute it will first show a confirmation buffer with relevant
warning of why this might be not a good idea. Confirming will delete
a plugin.
Problem:
- Empty ranges have different `<`, `<=`, `has` and `intersect` semantics compared to regular ranges.
- `to_inclusive_pos` assumes that the end position of a range is exclusive, which is not true for empty ranges
Solution:
Special case empty ranges in these operations.
Problem:
`builtin_types.lua` seems to be about vimfn (aka "eval", aka
"vimscript", …) specifically, whereas `builtin.lua` is about the Lua
stdlib.
Solution:
Rename it to `vimfn_types.lua`, to align with `vimfn.gen.lua`.
Problem:
Linter missed backtick and double-quote keynames in the quasi-keyset of
the `nvim_create_user_command` docstring.
Solution:
Update the linter to check backtick-surrounded and quote-surrounded key
names.
Problem:
When showing the :connect menu, it is useful to know which servers
are most-recently active. But we don't have a good way to detect that.
Solution:
- Introduce `v:useractive`.
- Include this timestamp in `serverlist({info=true})`.

Problem:
For a given position, it is not easy to compare which of several other positions is closest to it.
Solution:
Add support for converting `vim.Pos` to a buffer byte offset.
This allows for sorting, e.g:
```lua
table.sort(positions, function(pos1, pos2)
return pos1:to_offset() < pos2:to_offset()
end
```
Or a binary search, e.g:
```lua
vim.list.bisect(positions, pos, { key = function(pos) return pos:to_offset() end })
```
Improve the vim.iter annotations with richer generics that track element and
tuple types through iterator pipelines, including multi-value stages and
list-specific methods.
Extend the LuaCATS parser and vimdoc generator so those richer generic classes
and overloads round-trip into the generated help. These annotations are only
supported by EmmyLua, so LuaLS still uses a broader fallback in _meta.lua.

Problem: Entering the pager fails if <ESC> is remapped to :fclose by user.
Solution: Avoid executing mappings with nvim_feedkeys() that closes expanded cmdline.
Problem:
UI tools and orchestration engines need more context than just raw
socket addresses from serverlist(). Without knowing if a server belongs
to the current instance or knowing its PID, UIs cannot display
meaningful options to users.
Solution:
- Added the `info=v:true` option to `serverlist()`.
- When `info` is requested, it implies `peer=true` and returns a list of
dictionaries (defined as `vim.ServerInfo`) with `addr`, `pid` and
`own`.
- Uses an RPC request to `getpid()` across the socket to fetch the
peer's actual process ID.

Problem:
Can't get a command's description from nvim_get_commands when
cmd is string.
Solution:
Returns "desc" field in nvim_get_commands.
`definition` is now empty when cmd is function type.
Problem:
When using `vim.list.unique` or `vim.list.bisect`, if the `key` function is
complex, it can degrade performance, because it is invoked on every comparison
Solution:
The `key` interface convention is designed specifically to address this issue;
performance can be improved by memoizing its results.
Also added the shorthand use of the field name string as the key.
Problem:
Nested workspace capabilities like workspace.fileOperations.didCreate and
workspace.textDocumentContent are not handled consistently for dynamic and
static registration provider lookup.
Solution:
Generate explicit registration-provider mappings from the LSP metadata and use
them when registering and querying capabilities. Add coverage for dynamic and
static nested workspace registrations.
Problem:
`diagnostic.status` only follows the `config.status.format` setting to determine how to display diagnostic signs. However, `signs` can actually also be configured via `config.signs.text`.
Solution:
If the user has set symbols via `config.status.format`, let that determine the content of `signs`; otherwise, use `config.signs.text` for display.
TODO: drop support `type(config.status.format) == 'table'`; users should just configure `config.signs.text` directly.
Problem:
`get_node_text()` returned inconsistent results between buffer and
string sources when a node's range ends at `end_col == 0` (i.e. the node
ends with a newline). The buffer path dropped the trailing newline; the
string path included it correctly.
Solution:
Append `'\n'` in `buf_range_get_text()` when `end_col == 0` and
`start_row ~= end_row`. The `start_row ~= end_row` guard excludes
zero-width nodes at column 0, which should return `""`.
Remove the workaround in the `#trim!` directive that manually
compensated for the missing newline.
Strip whitespace in `resolve_lang()` so injection language nodes ending
at `end_col == 0` (e.g. `">lua\n"`) still resolve correctly.
Problem:
The fallback that tokenizes `eap->arg` by unescaped whitespace (when the
parser doesn't pre-split via `EX_EXPAND` etc.) lives in `nlua_do_ucmd`,
so only user-command callbacks got `eap.fargs`. Builtin commands routed
through `nlua_call_excmd` have to re-parse the args themselves
(e.g. `M.ex_lsp`).
Solution:
- Move the tokenization into `nlua_push_eap` so every Lua handler sees
`eap.fargs`. Keep only the `EX_NOSPC` override in `nlua_do_ucmd` (the
`nargs=1`/`?` case which is genuinely user-command-specific).
- Drop the re-parse in `M.ex_lsp`.
