A video demonstrating the bug with improperly formatting code
SUMMARY
Kate's LSP client with rust-analyzer regularly messes up code when saving.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Download the source code at
https://codeberg.org/kimimaru/UinputVirtualDevices or clone with Git
2. Open the project in Kate with rust-analyzer installed as an LSP client
3. Open virtual_joystick.rs file and save it without making any changes. You
may need to save more than once to trigger it.
OBSERVED RESULT
The code will be formatted in a way that often makes a big mess, constantly
switching between two different variants for imports at the top for example.
And also towards the bottom of the file, where it'll will leave big gaps for
some reason.
The most common formatting problem is that it adds an extra comma at the start
of the line after arguments, and sometimes it even duplicates arguments. I find
myself having to counterproductivively manually clean up all of the formatting
changes the LSP client should be helping me with.
EXPECTED RESULT
The code is formatted properly and doesn't cause compiler errors and require
manual cleanup.
