Listing symbols does not see aliases

[JDuchniewicz]

Issue from coc-rust-analyzer

The problem is best illustrated as such:

We have a struct Vec3; and a use Vec3 as Color statement.
When running CocList -I symbols and searching for Vec3 it finds it just fine but does not resolve Color.

This is apparently a limitation of aliases and has been discussed in libs zullip recently. Relevant issue in the language?

That's not a type alias, just a renamed import. What LSP API does CocList -I symbols use? workspace/symbol?

[JDuchniewicz]

Unfortunately, I am not able to find it with the codebase, maybe @fannheyward could help?

[jonas-schievink]

If it does use workspace/symbol, I believe this is working as intended. Type aliases should show up in there, but renamed imports shouldn't.

[fannheyward]

Yes, coc uses workspace/symbol, tested with VSCode + rust-analyzer, same results.
