http://www.vim9.org/ -> the current available version is vim 9.0.1490

Quoting from the side ->

"Virtual text has been implemented
[2022-09-10] The past weeks a new feature has been added, that allows for displaying text in between the buffer text. Since this text does not exist in the file this is often called "virtual text". The virtual text can appear inside the line, after the line and below the line. You can read about it in the help. (Bram Moolenaar)"

This feature should be available without chaning any configuration settings just by updating from 9.0.1479 (Haiku current) to 9.0.1490 (current available version)

Just for the record, 9.0.1479 was "released" (vim just tags every new commit it seems) is just a few days ago, so this feature should be already in the version we have. There doesn't seems to be a ./configure switch to enable/disable this, so... we'll have to look a bit deeper into why that LSP plugin complains about "virtual text" property not being present (assuming there's something wrong with our port, and not some plugin/user configuration issue).

This may require some patches to our GUI to allow rendering it.

Our native GUI is based on VIM 5 or 6 and was not really updated for many of the new features in moderm VIM GUI.
