Research direction
Start with the proposed Fallible definition in this issue and read the linked article for its motivation. Then review the Rust RFC process and determine the required API design, rationale, and acceptance criteria for adding it to std. Done would require a concrete, reviewed RFC decision rather than only the initial proposal.
