  • I have written a descriptive issue title.
  • I have searched all issues to ensure it has not already been requested.

Summary

Currently it seems output streams of the debugee are routed to stderr of the editor services. Is there a reason DAP OutputEvent are not being used for this?
Context:
mfussenegger/nvim-dap#1419 (reply in thread)
The DAP client for nvim recently started routing stderr of debug server to logfiles rather than showing it to users. This change on client side now prevents me from seeing the outputs streams of my debugee in neovim. Apparently most debug servers use OutputEvent to communicate output streams, so clients will be more likely to have support for this!

Proposed Design

Use OutputEvent to communicate the output streams rather than stderr.
