How to display over formatted help

[PMassicotte]

I am using lspsaga to enhance LSP in neovim (https://github.com/nvimdev/lspsaga.nvim).

One interesting feature is the over (https://nvimdev.github.io/lspsaga/hover/) function (shift+k) that provides function help. When I use this function in other language, the display looks like this:

In Rust:

In Python:

However, while this kinda works with R, the information is displayed as Markdown/HTML:

Anyone know if this could be easlily fixed?

It seems that the languageserver uses rmarkdown to convert the help from HTML to markdown (using the filter html-to-markdown.lua):

https://github.com/REditorSupport/languageserver/blob/9b300181f2588462cb5a6f7ecd55fcbeb083d028/R/utils.R#L621

And rmarkdown uses pandoc:

https://github.com/rstudio/rmarkdown/blob/4b2f3426c1f46a8d207b0d661fc51c2508ecdad7/R/pandoc.R#L40

So, the filter https://github.com/REditorSupport/languageserver/blob/master/inst/lua/html-to-markdown.lua needs improvements.
