I've often found ceramic chip caps encapsulated in tiny glass tubes.

80's tech. If you ever go into an Apollo workstation (card-and-backplane
technology from the 80s, built up from scads and scads of 74xx series
chips) you'll find those little guys absolutely *EVERYWHERE* - there's
one or more connected to practically every chip on every board.
