What did you do?

In vscode, passed a function literal with an incompatible signature as an argument to another function, i.e.

package main


func foo(fooer func(int)) {
	// ...
}

func main() {
	foo(func(bool) {
	  // ...
	})
}

here, foo expects func(int) but it gets func(bool).

What did you see happen?

The entire function literal (signature and body) is underlined with red squiggles. The problem is with the signature, but the red squiggles over the entire body make it hard to see where the problem actually is.

I.e.

What did you expect to see?

This is a feature request - it would be nice if only the signature is underlined as the problem.

I.e.
