It looks like your patch hit the list twice, see [1] and [2]. Also,
the body should be hard wrapped [3].

Since it's usually the first thing to be asked, do you have a
real-world driver that this is intended for? Typically new
abstractions don't get merged upstream unless there is an in-tree use
case.

We can still give the patch a cursory review from the Rust side even
if it isn't meant for upstreaming as-is. For future reference, you can
have "RFC PATCH" in the subject to make this clear (`git format-patch
--rfc` does this)
