As discussed on the F# Foundation Slack, there are instances when the
GetSymbolUseAtLocationfunction may return multiple correct symbols for a given line and end column. However, it currently only returns the first symbol in a somewhat arbitrary manner.To address this limitation, I believe it would be beneficial to introduce an API that allows developers to filter out the symbol they specifically require, based on custom logic tailored to their use case.
In order to demonstrate the scenarios where this issue can arise, I have included two tests that highlight such situations. At present, the only available alternative is to retrieve all symbols, which can be quite inconvenient, particularly for larger files.
