x/tools/gopls: find all References doesn't work if function name highlighted #76872
Description
Type: Bug
Using Find All References (FAR) does not work when a function name is highlighted. If the name is not highlighted, it does work. It also works if the function name along with the function parentheses are included. Using FAR from the mouse context menu and the Command Palette both do this.
It's extremely confusing that having the name highlighted would cause it not to work, and even more problematic to have to debug this behavior when it's not working
This can be reproduced with the simplest of functions, see the working and not working screenshots included
