Is there a solution yet in Rust to this problem of, monadic-ish constructs like Result and Option, but no nice way to chain them together without hideous nesting, like Haskell's "do" or Scala's "for"?

In the special case of Result, the new ? operator is going to subsume try! and offer more flexibility:

As steveklabnik says, there's nothing resembling generalized monadic do notation for now.

[steveklabnik]

We don't have HKT and therefore we can't have real do notation. The mdo crate provides a duck-typed macro.

.and_then calls themselves aren't too bad, with the right whitespace.
