So for example in VSCode, you can hold Ctrl and hover on a function call and see its definition in a popup. There was some discussion about this in https://reviews.llvm.org/D35894
Interesting - that seemed like a more natural interpretation of LSP to me.
Others talked me down, motivated (I think) by nicer behavior of jump-to-definition... will bring it up again :)
