Hmm... But they use `may_dangle` in their `Drop` and we don't (and we
have a `Drop` unlike something like `Unique`), no? Or am I confused?
i.e. if I understand correctly, that would have been needed in the
past, but not anymore.

In any case, a comment here clarifying would be good -- the standard
library does that in some of its types, which is a good idea. At the
very least, the name of the field should indicate why we have the
marker. I will add that to the guidelines patch I have to send...

Thanks!

Cheers,
Miguel
