Frankly, I prefer this over the default. With the default behavior, I 
can never
tell when the LSP server has actually finished initializing. The progress
indicator in the modeline often reaches 100%, but as soon as I move the 
cursor,
it resets to 0% and starts updating again with cursor movement.

Also, the 'messages option only displays output in the echo area for me. The
*Messages* buffer stays completely empty.

I understand that this option has a number of issues, so I wouldn't mind 
if you
removed it.
