Description

Hi, is it possible to overwrite the default attribute description? In html.html-data.json, I define my custom tag with the attribute "id" and a description for that attribute. Now I want vs-code to display my id attribute description when I enter it in the html file, but instead vs-code displays the description provided by MDN. Is it possible for my custom description to override the one provided by MDN?

Research direction

Start with the html.html-data.json custom-data example and investigate how VS Code resolves custom attribute descriptions against the MDN defaults. Determine whether an attribute such as id can override the built-in description, then document or test the behavior so the displayed description is unambiguous.
