Description
currently, impl Trait
usages capture all lifetimes that are in scope (and this kind of fails around late-bound lifetimes). In the newer RFC, the proposal was that they should only capture those lifetimes that are used in the impl trait itself.
Here are some mentoring instructions I wrote-up from before on how one might do this. But another way to think about this might be to think about implementing abstract type
(perhaps in a limited form) and desugaring to that.
However, work on this issue is blocked on #44727.
