is there anything blocking stabilization? its been a few cycles

[Gankra]

This is probably safe to nominate for stabilization now. I would certainly love to use this.

[Mark-Simulacrum]

Nominating for stabilization. I believe the relevant methods can all be found on this page of the documentation under the pointer_methods feature.
