Problem: Separate message emitted for each newline present in Lua
print() arguments.
Solution: Make msg_multiline() handle NUL bytes. Refactor print() to use
msg_multiline(). Refactor vim.print() to use print().
Problem: Documentation for "hl_group" in nvim_buf_set_extmark() is
unclear. "hl_group" in nvim_echo() does not accept
highlight group id.
Solution: Move documentation for highlight group name/id to first
mention of hl_group. Update nvim_echo() to accept highlight
group id.
Problem: Floating windows with focusable set to false can reasonably be
expected to be UI elements but are listed in some outputs that
should contain only regular windows.
Solution: Hide unfocusable floating windows from the default tabline and
:tabs.
Problem: No longer able to show prompt messages with vim.ui_attach().
Solution: Do not execute callback in fast context for prompt message
kinds. These events must be safe to show the incoming message
so the event itself serves to indicate that the message
should be shown immediately.
Problem: setting 'cmdheight' may cause hit-enter-prompt and echo output
to be missing
Solution: Before cleaning the cmdline, check the need_wait_return flag

Problem: Lua callbacks for "msg_show" events with vim.ui_attach() are
executed when it is not safe.
Solution: Disallow non-fast API calls for "msg_show" event callbacks.
Automatically detach callback after excessive errors.
Make sure fast APIs do not modify Nvim state.
Before calling "attach" a screen object is just a dummy container for
(row, col) values whose purpose is to be sent as part of the "attach"
function call anyway.
Just create the screen in an attached state directly. Keep the complete
(row, col, options) config together. It is still completely valid to
later detach and re-attach as needed, including to another session.
**Problem:** Currently node names with non-alphanumeric, non
underscore/hyphen characters (only possible with anonymous nodes) are
not given a proper error message. See tree-sitter issue 3892 for more
details.
**Solution:** Apply a different scanning logic to anonymous nodes to
correctly identify the entire node name (i.e., up until the final double
quote)
Problem: Crash when initializing for --startuptime errors.
Solution: Report the error to stderr, as neither logging nor messages
have been initialized yet.
Problem: Ext_messages chunks only contain the highlight attr id, which
is not very useful for vim.ui_attach() consumers.
Solotion: Add highlight group id to message chunks, which can easily be
used to highlight text in the TUI through nvim_buf_set_extmark():
hl_group = synIDattr(id, "name").
Problem: Highlight group id is not propagated to the end of the message call
stack, where ext_messages are emitted.
Solution: Refactor message functions to pass along highlight group id
instead of attr id.
Problem: Inccommand preview callback may flush inaccurate cmdline cursor position.
Solution: Ensure cursor is where it belongs when doing command preview.
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
Solution: use original attribute instead of combined attributed

- 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
```
