Re: [vim/vim] Combine highlighting for `numhl` when using multiples signs (Issue #16842)

ccjmne left a comment (vim/vim#16842)

AFAICT, currently, equal-priority signs ***do** get their properties merged*, but in the case of, say, @yegappan's (excellent) LSP plug-in, signs may be emitted with various priorities according to the severity of the corresponding diagnostic.

If we are to set, say, some VCS signs with `numhl` to the same priority as LSP's `error`-level, we'll get both the `E`rror indicator in the signs column, as well as the VCS colouring of the line number. However, in that case, if LSP were to emit only a `W`arning; we get only the VCS highlighting of the line number, and nothing in the gutter from LSP.

I do not know how to implement this most adequately without possibly ending up with some Frankenstein-like patchwork of `linehl`, `numhl`, `culhl`, `texthl`. What sort of configuration would Vim offer?
