+    // that all components in the projection outlive `'a`). This code
+    // is not in a position to judge which is the best technique, so

+    // outlive the bound. So for example if we had a type like this:
+    //
+    //     for<'a> Trait1<  <T as Trait2<'a,'b>>::Foo  >
+    //                      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

+    // then the inner projection (underlined) has an escaping region
+    // `'a`. We consider that outer trait `'c` to meet a bound if `'b`
+    // outlives `'b: 'c`, and we don't consider whether the trait
+    // declares that `Foo: 'static` etc. Therefore, we just return the
+    // free components of such a projection (in this case, `'b`).
+    //
+    // However, in the future, we may want to get smarter, and
+    // actually return a "higher-ranked projection" here. Therefore,
+    // we mark that these components are part of an escaping
+    // projection, so that implied bounds code can avoid relying on
+    // them. This gives us room to improve the regionck reasoning in
