It is very unlikely I personally would have time for that. There appear to be more uses for the LSP client, so it may be easier to get somewhere in this direction. > Still, I find something odd about LSP...

This is why I didn't use the LSP when I was writing the remote Java feature/experiment: https://github.com/apache/incubator-netbeans/pull/558 (Although it might be possible to partially reuse LSP there, and only extend it.)
