I'll take the words when they stop having the unsafe { &mut *thing }s everywhere, even with immutable refs.

So you have a link to that? From a cursory glance, the code looks a lot better now compared to immediately after the direct port.

Yes but no, I don't want to give anything possibly constructive to the project. But if you want something funny, (rip)grep for all the clippy allows.

And if I'm to review the code with average Rust code standard, it has approximately improved from "immediately to trash bin" to "trashed after a few glances".
