The recently-formed testing subteam is looking to solve your exact complaint: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/3455 https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull

  That's positive news, but I'll have to reserve my enthusiasm. I've been burned too many times with what seem like reasonable-looking RFCs that seem to have some initial momentum and then get closed out after a few years with no progress being made (& how that's communicated out & tracked is another complaint). For example & relevant to this: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/issues/816 https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/issues/816 redirected to https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2318 https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2318 https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2318 https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2318 says merged but links to tracking issue https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/50297 https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/50297 which was closed out without ever being implemented. So 5 years with no progress & a restarted effort. Don't get me wrong. I appreciate all the people devoting energy to this & other issues, & it's certainly easy to provide criticism from the sidelines, especially since actually solving the problem I'm sure can be hard & I'm not putting my cycles toward this. All I'm trying to communicate is that I'm personally not going to get my hopes up but I really wish the team luck and hope progress can be made here finally!
