sammccall added a comment. For some context here, I was doing some digging as Heyward Fann is looking at hooking up our existing syntax highlighting to coc.nvim, and he and Jack Guo (of jackguo380/vim-lsp-cxx-highlight) were asking about the protocol.
The new LSP protocol looks really solid, including better incremental highlight support than the Theia proposal, though this patch doesn't implement incremental yet. (In particular, no sending thousands of re-highlights when inserting a new line). It's also request-response rather than notification-based, which is easier to implement on the server side. Also the VSCode client-side of our highlighting feels like significant technical debt we could be rid of. So I think we should try to support the new LSP and drop the older Theia one ASAP (clangd 12?), even if semantic highlighting isn't a really high priority for us.
