Descripción
Follow-on from @JustinGrote's review on #2312: https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShellEditorServices/pull/2312#pullrequestreview-4521187389
Yeah looks fine to me. As a follow-on issue we should probably update the rename handler to use this same code path if it isn't already.
The rename handler (RenameService) is already on the modern path — it uses System.Management.Automation.Language.Parser.ParseInput plus AST visitors and never used the legacy PsParser, so there's nothing to migrate there. #2312 brought ExpandAliasHandler onto the same modern parser.
The remaining divergence is in output shape, and the reusable direction is the reverse of "rename adopts expand-alias": expand-alias should adopt rename's edit model.
ExpandAliasHandlerresolves aliases, then returns a single wholesale-rewritten string over the custompowerShell/expandAliasJSON-RPC request.RenameServicewalks AST extents and returnsTextEdit[]over standardtextDocument/rename, usingScriptExtentAdapterto map PowerShell 1-based extents to LSP 0-based ranges.
This is also what #2108 itself anticipated: "return a proper edit (potentially deprecating the need for an entirely separate custom request)."
Proposed work:
- Rework alias expansion to emit
TextEdits (reusingScriptExtentAdapter) covering each command-name token's extent, instead of returning a rewritten document. - Investigate folding it into a standard LSP surface (e.g. a code action) and deprecating the custom
powerShell/expandAliasrequest + its client plumbing in vscode-powershell.
Note this changes the client contract, so it needs coordination with the extension — which is why #2312 was scoped to just the parser swap.

Línea de trabajo
Comienza con ExpandAliasHandler, RenameService y ScriptExtentAdapter, usando #2312 y #2108 como contexto. Sigue el flujo existente de la solicitud powerShell/expandAlias y la infraestructura del cliente vscode-powershell; después compara la salida TextEdit del controlador de renombrado. Se considera terminado cuando la expansión de alias emite edits para los command-name extents y el contrato del cliente se actualiza o la solicitud personalizada queda obsoleta.
