Such “unstale” features could include outside Aconst generics, generic associated types, and specialization, permitting multiple impl blocks to apply to the same trait as long as one of the blocks is more specific than the other.Mozilla’s work this year on the Rust compiler is set complete language features and make improvements to compile times and error messages.
