Eldoc's display facilities are only for displaying.  Sure, you may want
to copy text away from there, but I'd say that's rare.  So it wouldn't
be a problem
in practice, unless I'm missing something

That's also sweeping it under the rug.  But I don't object either.  Augusto, if
you agree, match a patch to Eglot (this is where I presume the "input"
Eli refers
to lives).  Of course the real input is the server, but I'd rather not
go there, since
there are so many and all are out of our control.
