When encountering an opaque closure return type that needs to bound a
lifetime to the function's arguments, including borrows and type params,
provide appropriate suggestions that lead to working code.

Get the user from

fn foo<G, T>(g: G, dest: &mut T) -> impl FnOnce()
where
    G: Get<T>
{
    move || {
        *dest = g.get();
    }
}

to

fn foo<'a, G: 'a, T>(g: G, dest: &'a mut T) -> impl FnOnce() +'a
where
    G: Get<T>
{
    move || {
        *dest = g.get();
    }
}

The nll output is as good as the new regular output. I'll take a look at that later.

hmm, this kind of prints like a "jumble" to me...

I would prefer to keep output closer to E0621 but have trouble not "hiding" conceptual information that is actually necessary to ever learn why the + '_ fixes it.

Do you think we could print this?

It seems like we might know everything we need to know to "special case" this scenario, no?

I think it should be possible, yes, probably as a new nice_region_error impl.

Should I change this to be "to make it require less than 'static" instead?

I might say

help: to permit non-static references in a dyn Trait value, you need to add an explicit bound, as shown

or

help: consider adding an explicit bound to the dyn Trait as shown, which is used to declare that the dyn Trait may capture non-static references

Is the "as shown" something you'd like to add to all suggestions? In my mind it is implied always, and might not work nicely with the presentation in 3rd party tools (non-CLI uses).

I'm cooking up a commit to make this be "to permit non-static references in a dyn Trait value, you can add an explicit bound". WDYT?

you can leave out the "as shown", I'm not sure how implicit it really is, but I can believe it
