My reading of https://github.com/Microsoft/language-server-protocol/issues/376 is that they may only accept a proposal that comes with patches to Microsoft's implementations.
I'm not likely to work on that soon (it doesn't directly get us closer to interop goals) so my preferred path is implement and document the extension, get some support from other language clients/servers, and then push again for standardization.
