RFC Mentoring Opportunity: Permit `?` in `main()`

26

Maybe I’m missing something, but my immediate reaction to this (given that we don’t have catch) is to just wrap the part that returns a Result in a separate function.

fn run() -> Result<(), Box<Error>> {
    some_stuff()?
}
fn main() {
    run().unwrap()  // or deal with the Result in some other way
}

This doesn’t seem all that unergonomic to me, and avoids introducing some special case for main(). Or does everyone think this is too much?
