Same here on all points. I am familiar w/ existing options to create Qt bindings in Rust, yet like other non-Qt-backed bindings (i.e. not PySide), they fall into disrepair or suffer on often needed features such as inheritance and slot

So the Go middleware is interpreted? Curious how that works with a request lazy/large body reader and a response lazy/large body writer? What kind of overhead is added to each invocation of read/write there?
