That is better than using the mode-line, and meets my needs.
So I suggest we just delete eglot--spinner.
I'd say you're right, I can't find a use for it atm. Also delete the part
of the mode-line updating where it is consulted, as that is basically
dead code right now.
IIRC it was used when there was some RLS-specific code
that informed the user that RLS was not ready for some LSP
requests yet.
Perhaps we can still think of putting the progress indication resulting
from Danny's patch in the Eglot-specific mode-line section.
