    I think this would be a nice improvement to reduce boiler plate.

    This is really great and would solve the problem that led me to create constructor-lite.

    With this RFC, its usage could be replaced with

    #[derive(Debug, PartialEq)]
    struct Movie {
        title: String,
        year: Option<u16> = None,
    }
    
    assert_eq!(
        Movie { title: "Star Wars".to_owned(), .. },
        Movie { title: "Star Wars".to_owned(), year: None },
    )

      Think you would need Movie { title: "Star Wars".to_owned(), .. }, the .. is mandatory.

        Thanks, that was an oversight on my part.
