Subject: bug#65518: 30.0.50; [FR Eglot] Completions over all workspace symbols
Date: Fri, 25 Aug 2023 08:44:14 +0200

I'm in a C buffer with Eglot running, and I want to go to the definition
of something whose name I know, but point is not on an identifier naming
that thing.  For instance, I want to go the definition of Lisp_Package
(in an obsure branch having a struct Lisp_Package), while point is
somewhere.

C-u M-. offers some completions, but Lisp_Package is not among them.
Not using a completion and entering Lisp_Package works.

Feature request: Could the completions be made to contain all workspace
symbols. maybe as a n optional feature?  Lsp-mode has something doing
that, and I found it quite useful with Helm.
