When hovering, the Zed feature of showing the definition of the item under the cursor is quite nice. However, it is very distracting because it obscures code around what you just clicked on, and, also, it "just appears" (I know I can turn it off but I really want the info.).
Another editor, SourceInsight, has this really nice capability where you can have a sub-window - called the Context Window* - that shows you this information in real time. See the bottom left window here: Context Window; Documentation on the feature.
*: In Zed, it will have to be called something else since Context Window is used for AI agent interaction.
