They can do that if they enable MELPA.  But we want to have a good
Rust mode included in the Emacs core.


Well, there are already two rust modes (rust-mode and rustic) which have significant amounts of shared code, so that I've ended up fixing bugs in the two places. Having a third code base would be unfortunate. So, if you want this, I think find a way to get either rust-mode or rustic into core.
