Secret FORTH option? Gotta make sure all the cool up-and-coming languages are supported
(Wah, I should have found/read github.com/rust-lang/ru... first. That makes sense and seems like the right way forward, even if i'm sad not to get another user for --output-format=doctests)
rustdoc: Tracking issue for command-line flag `--output-format=doctest` · Issue #134529 · rust-lang/rust
This option is needed by the Rust-for-Linux project. The goal is to allow them to extract doctests so they can modify them and run them however they want to simplify their testing pipeline. Note Tr...

(Speaking personally, not for T-Rustdoc) I'm worried about stabilizing something that's over-fitted for the R4L use-case, and would want to make sure it's usable for nextest before stabilization, which probably requires changing rustdoc's output. (Which is the whole point having nightly!)

FWIW, the current design was motivated by the needs of Rust4Linux, who want to compile all the doctests with their own rustc invocation, to run them in kernelspace. R4L has the obvious advantage of only needing this to work for their crates, not any arbitrary crate.

Add support for doctests · Issue #16 · nextest-rs/nextest
Currently, nextest doesn't support Rust doctests. This is because doctests are not exposed in stable Rust the way regular test binaries are, and are instead treated as special by cargo test. One ni...

Words of wisdom: it's not a performance regression if the faster code was incorrect.
