But when I intercept jdtls today via a script to log the command-line args, there is no --data command-line argument passed when invoking jdtls.

The way I see it, this seems to be mostly a Jdtls problem, with lots
of Java world infrastructure details.

We'd need someone with Elisp and Java expertise (and respective
toolchains) to reproduce this, and I only have the former.

Can, since you do program Java, can you try to attach a debugger
or do some printf debugging or follow the code paths in Jdtls
to see why it  isn't using the "file:///data/cay/bin/cay-eclipse.formatter.xml"
file that (as we've already established) Eglot is sending it
(or at least attempting to send)?

Anway I'll give it a shot using a VM I sed for reproducing a Tramp/Eglot
problem a while ago.  No promises though, the setup overhead
is large here.
