    With full credit where it is due: to @EH2406, who put the original together (here). Note that I'm doing a quick pass and confirming each of these as I get to them.
Need documentation - * means this is (should be) in the expressions chapter rewrite


#0090: lexical-syntax-simplification
Lexical syntax is already documented in the grammar
reference, but isn't up-to-date with RFC 0090. Since there's already a lexical
syntax section in the Rust Reference, probably just add this to the Reference
instead.


#0213: defaulted-type-params


#0241: deref-conversions 8.3.2 is missing one (arguably)


#0940: hyphens-considered-harmful partially in 6.1.2.1, but it links to the RFC


#0953: op-assign, the reference ignores this. (std documentation exists though) *


#1560: name-resolution

Error messages

These don't add any extra language features or syntax, but instead make
certain existing syntactical combinations illegal. The compiler will already
give useful information if someone runs across them.
