Just driving by, hopefully this is helpful; it looks like company may be
the missing ingredient. If I follow these steps but add:
`-L ~/path/to/company -l company`, run both

M-x company-mode
and
M-x eglot

with `tab-always-indent' set to 'complete I'm able to reproduce the
issue described by Pankaj. If I skip loading Eglot but only use company
the issue doesn't surface.

Cheers,
Doug
