I do stuff, I say stuff. It's serious business.
I do agree that there is a concept of Handle already across the rust ecosystem and nailing down a trait to represent that is good. Not sure if Handle is idiomatic as rust traits with one method tend to be verbs. It would also cause some clash with existing types names Handle. Minor issues though.
I think "handle" is the right name here, I actually came up with it independently but didn't want to wade into the discourse about it smallcultfollowing.com/babysteps/bl...
