Yes, I think I mentioned this before. Depends on how you design the feature.
And you can't just defenestrate eglot-server-programs, you have to keep
backward compatibility to it.

The feature hasn't been designed so I don't understand the comparative
"more".  But yes, it could make a lot of sense.  But instead of "directory",
"project".  And instead of "command line arguments", "contact".

CCing Philip who proposed working on this.
