Problem:
tagfunc failed in a weird buffer (either a directory or some other
non-file buffer, I don't remember):
E987: Invalid return value from tagfunc
E5108: Error executing lua …/runtime/lua/vim/lsp/util.lua:311: EISDIR: illegal operation on a directory
stack traceback:

local data = assert(uv.fs_read(fd, stat.size, 0))
Solution:
Check for directory.
Problem: 'cedit', 'termwinkey' and 'wildchar' may not be parsed

- Problem: `^@` raises an error.
Solution: Store as `<Nul>`.
- Problem: `<t_xx` does not raise an error.
Solution: Raise an error if closing `>` is missing.
- Problem: Single `<` or `^` raises an error. It is inconvenient for users.
Solution: They are stored as a single character.

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'.
The current LspAttach example shows setting options which are already
set by default. We should expect that users are going to copy-paste
these examples, so we shouldn't use examples that are superfluous and
unnecessary.
Problem: `runtime/tools/emoji_list.vim` is a Lua script masquerading as
Vimscript, which is unnecessary now that `:source` works for Lua files.
Solution: Remove Vimscript wrapper.
With "g:markdown_fenced_languages" defined and "java" added
to its list, a circular dependency between the Markdown and
Java syntax files will be made. To break it, no Markdown
documentation comments will be recognised in fenced blocks
in Markdown files; in order to view Java source files,
"java" must be removed from "g:markdown_fenced_languages",
and this task can be automated as follows.
1) Add to "~/.after/ftplugin/java.vim":
------------------------------------------------------------
if exists("g:markdown_fenced_languages") &&
\ !(exists("g:java_ignore_javadoc") ||
\ exists("g:java_ignore_markdown"))
let s:idx = index(g:markdown_fenced_languages, 'java')
if s:idx > -1
call remove(g:markdown_fenced_languages, s:idx)
endif
unlet s:idx
endif
------------------------------------------------------------
2) Optionally add to "~/.after/ftplugin/markdown.vim":
------------------------------------------------------------
if exists("g:markdown_fenced_languages") &&
\ index(g:markdown_fenced_languages, 'java') < 0
call add(g:markdown_fenced_languages, 'java')
endif
------------------------------------------------------------
(Make sure that the above snippets appear in the files under
the "ftplugin" NOT "syntax" directory.)
Finally, unless the new version of the syntax file is made
available from "$VIMRUNTIME" (and from "~/.vim/syntax" if
necessary), OTHER discoverable file versions will be used
whose behaviour may interfere with this fix.

Some commands don't accept "count" and only work with "range". It's not
clear why. The issue is tracked at [1], but this is a workaround for
now.

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`.
An implication of this current approach is that `NVIM_API_LEVEL` should be
bumped when a new Lua function is added.
TODO(future): add a lint check which requires `@since` on all new functions.
ref #25416
**Problem:** The documentation for `TSNode` and `TSTree` methods is
incomplete from the LSP perspective. This is because they are written
directly to the vimdoc, rather than in Lua and generated to vimdoc.
**Solution:** Migrate the docs to Lua and generate them into the vimdoc.
This requires breaking up the `treesitter/_meta.lua` file into a
directory with a few different modules.
This commit also makes the vimdoc generator slightly more robust with
regard to sections that have multiple help tags (e.g. `*one* *two*`)
Some composite/compound types even as basic as `(string|number)[]` are
not currently supported by the luacats LPEG grammar used by gen_vimdoc.
It would be parsed & rendered as just `string|number`.
Changeset adds better support for these types.
Problem: fixed order of items in insert-mode completion menu
Solution: Introduce the 'completeitemalign' option with default
value "abbr,kind,menu" (glepnir).
Adding an new option `completeitemalign` abbr is `cia` to custom
the complete-item order in popupmenu.

Problem:
The `_watch.watch()` strategy may fail if the given path does not exist:
…/vim/_watch.lua:101: ENOENT: no such file or directory
stack traceback:
[C]: in function 'assert'
…/vim/_watch.lua:101: in function <…/vim/_watch.lua:61>
[string "<nvim>"]:5: in main chunk
- `_watch.watch()` actively asserts any error returned by `handle:start()`.
- whereas `_watch.watchdirs()` just ignores the result of `root_handle:start()`.
Servers may send "client/registerCapability" with "workspace/didChangeWatchedFiles"
item(s) (`baseUri`) which do not actually exist on the filesystem:
https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/28058#issuecomment-2189929424
{
method = "client/registerCapability",
params = {
registrations = { {
method = "workspace/didChangeWatchedFiles",
registerOptions = {
watchers = { {
globPattern = {
baseUri = "file:///Users/does/not/exist",
pattern = "**/*.{ts,js,mts,mjs,cjs,cts,json,svelte}"
}
},
...
}
Solution:
- Remove the assert in `_watch.watch()`.
- Show a once-only message for both cases.
- More detailed logging is blocked until we have `nvim_log` / `vim.log`.

When typing `:h usr` it redirects to usr_01.txt, but I'd argue
usr_toc.txt is more useful as you can see an overview of all manuals.
When I usr `:h usr` I personally always intend to go to `usr_toc`.

Problem: For :InspectTree, indent size (`&shiftwidth`) for the tree
viewer may be incorrect.
This is because the tree viewer buffer with the filetype `query` does
not explicitly configures the tab size, which can mismatch with the
default indent size (2) assumed by TSTreeView's implementation.
Solution: Set shiftwidth to be the same as TSTreeViewOpts specifies,
which defaults to 2.
Complement "g:java_ignore_javadoc" with "g:java_ignore_html"
and "g:java_ignore_markdown" to allow selectively disabling
the recognition of HTML and CommonMark respectively.
(Note that this is not a preview feature.)
======================== LIMITATION ========================
According to the syntactical details of JEP 467:
> Any leading whitespace and the three initial / characters
> are removed from each line.
>
> The lines are shifted left, by removing leading whitespace
> characters, until the non-blank line with the least
> leading whitespace has no remaining leading whitespace.
>
> Additional leading whitespace and any trailing whitespace
> in each line is preserved, because it may be significant.
the following example:
------------------------------------------------------------
/// A summary sentence.
/// A list:
/// - Item A.
/// - Item B.
///
/// Some code span, starting here `
/// 1 + 2 ` and ending at the previous \`.
------------------------------------------------------------
should be interpreted as if it were written thus:
------------------------------------------------------------
///A summary sentence.
/// A list:
/// - Item A.
/// - Item B.
///
/// Some code span, starting here `
/// 1 + 2 ` and ending at the previous \`.
------------------------------------------------------------
Since automatic line rewriting will not be pursued, parts of
such comments having significant whitespace may be ‘wrongly’
highlighted. For convenience, a &fex function is defined to
‘correct’ it: g:javaformat#RemoveCommonMarkdownWhitespace()
(:help ft-java-plugin).

Problem:
Linematch used to use strchr to navigate a string, however strchr does
not supoprt embedded NULs.
Solution:
Use `mmfile_t` instead of `char *` in linematch and introduce `strnchr()`.
Also remove heap allocations from `matching_char_iwhite()`
Fixes: #30505
Problem: No clear way to check whether parsers are available for a given
language.
Solution: Make `language.add()` return `true` if a parser was
successfully added and `nil` otherwise. Use explicit `assert` instead of
relying on thrown errors.
Problem: Language names are only registered for filetype<->language
lookups when parsers are actually loaded; this means users cannot rely
on `vim.treesitter.language.get_lang()` or `get_filetypes()` to return
the correct value when language and filetype coincide and always need to
add explicit fallbacks.
Solution: Always return the language name as valid filetype in
`get_filetypes()`, and default to the filetype in `get_lang()`. Document
this behavior.
Some gnu indent options take negative numbers (e.g. --indent-label).
Add matching for an optional single '-' before the number.

Problem:
Headings in :help do not stand out visually.
Solution:
Define a non-standard `@markup.heading.1.delimiter` group and
special-case it in `highlight_group.c`.
FUTURE:
This is a cheap workaround until we have #25718 which will enable:
- fully driven by `vimdoc/highlights.scm` instead of using highlight
tricks (`guibg=bg guifg=bg guisp=fg`)
- better support of "cterm" ('notermguicolors')
Problem:
EditQuery shows swapfile ATTENTION, but this buffer is not intended for
preservation (and the dialog breaks the UX).
Solution:
Set 'noswapfile' on the buffer before renaming it.
