If you think this is actually useful (and I'm mildly horrified to find that I'm starting to think it might be), you may wish to step up to help maintain it, because I doubt I'll keep giving it much attention once the novelty wears off. There's an open issue to address this situation which has been going since 2017 without as much as a concrete proposal, so I don't think one should allow oneself to feel too hopeful about a quick resolution to this problem. Interestingly, though, while I was expecting Rust's borrow checker and the fact that it differentiates so clearly between owned values and mutable and immutable references to be a primary barrier to the implementation of this crate, this turned out to be more of an issue of API design than anything else.
