Whilst desugaring too early is indeed an issue for creating a robust compiler, would it still make sense to think of how these language features desugar on a design/theoretical level? Then once these are set in stone for 1.0, document these transformations? ~Brendan _______________________________________________ Rust-dev mailing list Rust-dev@mozilla.org https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/rust-dev
