I know but right now the best thing we have in terms of bindings to the native windows kernel APIs is https://github.com/pravic/winapi-kmd-rs which unfortunately never received polishing. I forked it a while back to include the bindings I needed but stopped after scratching my itch. I would love comprehensive bindings for that and got my hopes up when I saw this post.
