Moving language parsing/refactoring/etc into a separate daemon is a step towards unifying tooling around specific protocols for interacting with compilers. Microsoft's effort towards a single language server protocol is worth mentioning: https://github.com/Microsoft/language-server-protocol https://github.com/Microsoft/language-server-protocol I'd love to see a future when new languages/compilers can implement this protocol for their external compiling daemons and just get support in all the various text editors/IDEs automatically.
