`valuable`[1] was initially written to support tracing, but I see this 0.1 release doesn't use it. Is valuable seen as more of an add-on to this approach, rather than core to it?
The current release of `tracing` includes the predecessor of valuable (https://docs.rs/tracing-core/latest/tracing_core/span/struct...). Valuable extracts this functionality and improves on it, but hasn't quite made its way back into tracing yet. I expect that it will be included in upcoming releases (I know eliza has been poking me to release valuable and get it in tracing, I probably should get on that!)
Yeah, the goal is for `valuable` to replace `tracing`'s (currently much more limited) `Value` trait entirely, when we release `tracing` 0.2. Before making a breaking change, though, we want to release opt-in support for `valuable` in the current v0.1.x `tracing` ecosystem, so people can start trying it out and we can figure out if there's anything missing.
This looks great! I wonder how hard it would be to add support for this to debuggers like lldb. I believe they currently lack a way to inspect rust objects.
I stopped following development of `valuable` since I was too busy with non-rust-stuff, but weren't there still some big API-shaping questions open for it?
