Thanks for you input. I don’t think eglot (and LSP the protocol) handles font-lock and indent, and tree-sitter doesn’t do the things you listed for eglot. So if you just enable tree-sitter and eglot you should get what you want exactly. I don’t know about eglot, but we are working on the toggle for tree-sitter right now, you can see the other thread I started on this topic.
