It's complicated.  You request them for a region, but you also give them
"context", which _are_ the diagnostics.  Then you get back a big list of
code-actions that apply to that region, and normally they come back with
specific pointers back to the diagnostics they "resolve".

I mean, I like it too, that's why I came up with it :-)  It's certainly
googleable.  But you asked about Rudi's assertion of "first class
support".  For me, first class means to having a quirky name for it,
it's just there.
