Problem
Sometimes it may take a few seconds to return diagnostics in a file (especially when you first open a workspace). We would like a way to signal to users that diagnostics are actively being computed but are not being shown yet. This piece of information could also be used at other points in the VS Code UI (such as preventing f5 for example)

Possible solutions
We discussed a few potential ideas around this at the FB meeting:

  • Add API so that an extension / language server can signal that diagnostics are actively being computed for a given file
  • Encourage extensions to return a fake diagnostic that says "diagnostics are being computed"
  • Add a pull model for diagnostics so that we can determine

(This came out of the FB meeting)
