Language server protocol

Hi,
I recently stumbled upon this concept.
https://langserver.org/
I know its not fresh news, but I was wondering what do you guys think about it?

Edited by Vjekoslav on Reason: Initial post
I personally don't think it's a too bad concept.

However there are a few issues.

Communication is JSON over a pipe. That means a roundtrip through the kernel and parsing overhead.

The lang server needs to maintain a duplicate document workspace state. If you have ever tried to keep 2 non-trivial data sets in sync you know that this is not easy.
