This is an approach that I really like because of some not necessarily obvious properties: the behavior of the code as written is easily predictable, while still getting the benefits of a compiler's help. The suggestions can be more aggressive than automatic changes, because a human is in the loop and they can apply judgement of whether a certain strategy is beneficial or not.


We can also offer more precise choices: say you have an ambiguous `Deref`, instead of saying `T` in the turbofish (for brevity), we could let the user select from the different available `Deref` impls what should be inserted.
