+//! "Object safety" refers to the ability for a trait to be converted
+//! to an object. In general, traits may only be converted to an
+//! object if all of their methods meet certain criteria. In particular,
+//! they must:
+//!
+//!   - have a suitable receiver from which we can extract a vtable and coerce to a "thin" version
+//!     that doesn't contain the vtable;
+//!   - not reference the erased type `Self` except for in this receiver;
+//!   - not have generic type parameters.

+///   (substitution notation).
+///
+/// Some examples of receiver types and their required obligation:
+/// - `&'a mut self` requires `&'a mut Self: DispatchFromDyn<&'a mut dyn Trait>`,
+/// - `self: Rc<Self>` requires `Rc<Self>: DispatchFromDyn<Rc<dyn Trait>>`,
+/// - `self: Pin<Box<Self>>` requires `Pin<Box<Self>>: DispatchFromDyn<Pin<Box<dyn Trait>>>`.
+///
+/// The only case where the receiver is not dispatchable, but is still a valid receiver
+/// type (just not object-safe), is when there is more than one level of pointer indirection.
+/// E.g., `self: &&Self`, `self: &Rc<Self>`, `self: Box<Box<Self>>`. In these cases, there
+/// is no way, or at least no inexpensive way, to coerce the receiver from the version where
+/// `Self = dyn Trait` to the version where `Self = T`, where `T` is the unknown erased type
+/// contained by the trait object, because the object that needs to be coerced is behind
+/// a pointer.
+///
+/// In practice, we cannot use `dyn Trait` explicitly in the obligation because it would result
+/// in a new check that `Trait` is object safe, creating a cycle (until object_safe_for_dispatch
+/// is stabilized, see tracking issue https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/43561).
+/// Instead, we fudge a little by introducing a new type parameter `U` such that
+/// `Self: Unsize<U>` and `U: Trait + ?Sized`, and use `U` in place of `dyn Trait`.
+/// Written as a chalk-style query:
+///
+///     forall (U: Trait + ?Sized) {
+///         if (Self: Unsize<U>) {
+///             Receiver: DispatchFromDyn<Receiver[Self => U]>
+///         }
+///     }
+///
+/// for `self: &'a mut Self`, this means `&'a mut Self: DispatchFromDyn<&'a mut U>`
+/// for `self: Rc<Self>`, this means `Rc<Self>: DispatchFromDyn<Rc<U>>`
+/// for `self: Pin<Box<Self>>`, this means `Pin<Box<Self>>: DispatchFromDyn<Pin<Box<U>>>`
