    RFCs for changes to Rust

    IMO the biggest problem is that Rust is pretty lacking in the ability to dynamic link to code (which isn't a feature of OOP in general! It just so happen that many OOP languages also have this feature), which translates in a poor ability to write plugin systems and hot-reload code. This is not an intrinsic limitation of Rust the language though, just the tooling around it, and there is work in progress to mitigate the issue.
