Are there plans to unmangle the symbols when printing stacks? c++filt

for simple functions it's barely parseable but the following is hardly

translates to

  <rust_binder[8787f43e282added]::range_alloc::DescriptorState as core[8787f43e282added]::fmt::Debug>::fmt
Yes, I agree, we need a better story for name mangling.
My proposal is that we store a pretty name which matches the source
(eg rust_binder::range_alloc) and a sha1 of the mangled symbol
(40 bytes of uninteresting hex).  Symbol resolution is performed against
the sha1.  Printing is of the pretty name.  It should be obvious from
the stack trace which variant of a function is being called, no?
