I was about to suggest something like the following for the simplest "visit" case: (cl-defgeneric eglot-find-uri (server scheme uri) "Edit the document given by URI. Similary to `find-file' switch to a buffer visiting the document given by URI, creating one if none already exists." ...) But then I read the comment in eglot-uri-to-path and realized that Eglot already supported extensibility with variable file-name-handler-alist. I'm guessing the "untitled" scheme can be supported using this variable. At any rate, if Eglot can find the buffer of an URI, then it can install its post-command-hooks in that buffer. And I think it is okay to fail at "create", "rename", and "delete" for non-file schemes until someone complains.
