I had never taken the time to set it up properly and it's glorious.

Could you send (previous toot) to my past self verbatim? 100% yeah. That's how I know. Thanks for coming to my ted talk.

See that's what I want.
I mean, I want more. But it's a good start.

@whitequark it can (and will) get even better — the showcase isn't showing half of what we can do

@whitequark it's definitely what I intended, months ago, when my brain was still fresh. I remembered vaguely that storage would be annoying, and.. today I just went in a completely different direction lol

@whitequark this is.. so much better on so many levels
1) everything validated at compile time
2) better diagnostics (arbitrarily better, if you want to bring a proc macro welcome to the party)
3) no heap allocation required for the 'parsed form' of attribute values — it's now just a &'static […]

@whitequark likely — I will try it out and report back.

@whitequark what I came up is so much more involved: https://github.com/facet-rs/facet/blob/5e26cfb30c3c929f8a83666841577ef6714f4733/drafts/extension-attributes-design.md

@whitequark hmph but then everyone has to ship a proc macro which suuuuuucks

@whitequark or, wait, you're saying to produce a macro invocation

@whitequark this only works if `facet-macros` knows about third_party_crate and imports its proc macro as a function which it can then run

@whitequark oh for sure, but the problem is... pluggability. it's for facet attributes contributed by third-party crates. I've already found a bunch of tricks, but the actual parsing of the attribute value still happens at runtime for now
