Add a way to link a Sublime Text window to an existing LSP's instance

[bangbangsheshotmedown]

If i open Sublime Text and enable a server, all works fine

If i move to tab and create a new window, then no completion is available for that window

Starting a new server just for that moved tab feels wasteful in resources

Suggestion:

Add a command so i can link a Window to a LSP instance

Perhaps:

• "LSP: attach window to LSP.."

lists active LSP instances

[ LSP: clangd - "window name for clangd" ]
[ LSP: pylsp - "window name for pylsp" ]

user select an instance

window now is able to get completions from that selected LSP instance until it is closed

I think that added complexity (both code wise and user experience wise) makes it not worth it. The benefit seems seems rather small.

Unless fellow maintainers think otherwise, we'll have to reject this idea.

It shouldn't be difficult at all, it is a matter of setting a flag, and skipping server initialization

It's common to use multiple windows, specially when one use a tiling window manager

Difficulty is relative, it shouldn't prevent progress

The benefit seems seems rather small.

If you use clangd on a large project, it can eat multiple GB of ram... no fun at all..

Really like this, which means you probably provide a PR right?

If enough people complain about that, then someone may implement it. But just "may".

You apparently don't how this client works.
There is a very strong connection between the given window and the folders it includes and the server. Opening individual files in a separate window and pretending like it's another window with complete project is not compatible with this implementation.

I could try to submit a PR, but now right now
