Description

Description

I'm currently seeing a lot of PRs for rust seeking to add features that rust-server already has. It's going to be rather tedious to keep maintaining two parallel Rust generators.

Suggest a fix/enhancement

It would surely be more efficient to either pick only one for future maintenance or merge the two?

Start by comparing the existing rust and rust-server generators and the features already present in each. Review the related Rust feature PRs mentioned in the issue, then determine whether the maintenance path is to retain one generator or merge them; done means documenting and implementing a decided consolidation plan.
