Better way to handle go to defs when something goes wrong?
I'm not sure if the odd behavior is due to the lang extension, the extension API or both, but wanted to document the behavior in any case.
I expected some indication that something went wrong so I know not to wait or try again.
I also expected that the hover would be dismissed after some arbitrary amount of time had passed.
Hmm I think this is because the extension polls the server for definitions, which it does because codeintellify will pre-fetch the definition and the server may not have analyzed the project yet. But I think it would be better behaviour to not poll and have the user trigger the action again, but I don't know if that would re-invoke the definition provider. @sqs do you know?
