Hi, sorry, I forgot I opened this. If it's expected behaviour is the
usage of overlays here by eglot and related packages wrong? Even if it's
expected this is the only editor I've used which has inlay hints that
override attributes like hl-line. Is there an alternative way for eglot
to support inlay hints that isn't in conflict with hl-line?
