The only thing that bothers me is that Rust’s standard library has no good solution for when you do want to take a GIGO position, such as if you need to interoperate over FFI with C/C++ code that does so. There’s Vec<u8>, but it’s missing a lot of the convenience methods and other functionality available for strings, and its Debug impl (i.e. string representation for debugging) gives you a list of numbers rather than, say, a best-effort UTF-8 interpretation. There’s also OsString on Unix, but that’s OS-specific and also is missing functionality. Unsurprisingly, there’s a third-party crate that has the functionality what I want, and thanks to Cargo that’s almost as good as it being in the standard library… but I still want there to be something in the standard library. :)
