Tiny switches for these customizations is not a good idea. It's complex,
hard to find, and doesn't scale well
For this and other use cases we need something more robust like
in many packages, a user-customizable eglot-mode-line-format. You
can e.g. use flymake-mode-like-format as an idea. Of course,
the default value of eglot-mode-line-format would keep the
Eglot mode-line exactly as it is.
Yes, I agree.
But my goal here isn't to make eglot-mode-line customizable, it's to add code to make the eglot mode line automatically avoid duplicating project-name.
I figured some people might want to disable this code, so I made it customizable, but that customization is not essential. I'm happy to remove the customization, and just have the eglot modeline automatically remove the project-name when project-mode-line is set. That removes the need for any new customization variables, while still fixing the issue of duplication.
Support for actual customization of the eglot mode line can be added later with an eglot-mode-line-format, as you suggest.
