Methods that return unsized types can be (uselessly) codegened

[arielb1]

trait Foo {
    fn foo(&self) -> [u8];
}

fn foo(f: Option<&Foo>) {
    if let Some(f) = f {
        let _ = f.foo();
    }
}

fn main() { foo(None) }

This does generate code that calls foo in the vtable, but is not particularly useful.

Still a problem?

It's still true, but I'm not especially worried about it.

Isn't it a bug that you can declare such a trait at all? There's no way to implement it, right?
