What do you think we're currently missing that Python's `from_type` has? I actually think the auto-deriving stuff we currently have in Rust is as good or better than from_type (e.g. it gets you the builder methods, has support for enums), but I've never been a heavy from_type user.

`from_type` just supports a bunch more things than rust ever can due to the flexibility of python's type system. `from_type(object)` is amazing, for example, and not something we can write in rust.

Yeah, that's true. I was going to say that it's maybe not fair to count things that just don't even make sense in Rust, but I guess the logical analogue is something like `Box<dyn MyTrait>` which it would make sense to have a default generator for but also we're totally not going to support that.
