The KDL Document Language
To me it looks amazing, and I was literally about to adopt it in one of my open source Rust-based projects, but then I realized that the Rust version (and only the Rust version) is restrictively licensed under the Parity Public License [1].
I want my open source project to be able to be used in commercial applications, and don't want any of my dependencies' licenses to restrict that.

impl serde::Deserialize... is it really that complicated?
Now, in practice, most deserializers will transparently forward themselves through visit_newtype_struct (json, yaml, MessagePack). However, because deserialize_newtype_struct has access to the type name being deserialized, and some deserializers will use this type name to inform custom behavior. For instance, in my (in-progress) implementation of KDL uses type names (including newtype names) to inform the names of nodes in homogeneous lists, bridging the gap between serde's collection-oriented model and KDL's node-oriented model. You can also see that the json and MessagePack serde implementations use special typenames to opt-in to custom behavior (like serde-json's raw-value feature).
