I took a look at all the issues labeled rust-2-breakage-wishlist to see if there were any good examples in there, but there weren’t.
Most of them are simply breaking changes to std
, which the editions RFC specifically states cannot be done with editions (in fact, that part of the editions RFC uses https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/35943 as its example). So there’s not much point gathering more examples like that.
The remainder aren’t great examples either for various reasons. One of them needs non-trivial design work so it’d probably go through a normal RFC if anyone did that work. One is simply incorrect. One is irrelevant now that ? works on Options. One would be a very controversial bikeshed. And finally there’s this minor issue involving CLI flags, which isn’t really what we’re looking for either.
