Tauri vs Iced vs egui: Rust GUI framework performance comparison (including startup time, input lag, resize tests)
That said, a lot of the things we're working on are still in development within our development fork of iced, so they are not yet published for code review. And COSMIC-specific work is in libcosmic, which depends on that.

How will HDR be implemented in COSMIC Rust?
GUI frameworks: Iced and Slint can be used for making Cosmic apps. You can pull libcosmic into a project to get the COSMIC integration for Iced.

What to expect from Pop!_OS's COSMIC, a desktop environment written from scratch in Rust
COSMIC will let users customize the desktop in the form of Applets. They wouldn’t work like the very-flexible custom scripting in GNOME though, because it could lead to instabilities when the system updates and collateral damage. Applets would be kind of what they are in Linux Mint: an extension attached to the dock or panel.

What Desktop Environment do you use?
I think there might be some confusion in this poll and thread -- COSMIC is the name of both a suite of components in Pop_Shell, which modifies (but does not replace) GNOME shell components like the dock and workspaces, as well as a full-fledged desktop environment that replaces GNOME.
