Patches pushed to the rust-team branch with a few changes.  I'll answer
your questions inline.

Probably could have updated rust-zbus-macros-3 first and then
rust-zbus-3, but if the two commits are next to each other its generally
fine.  Or doing both in one commit is also fine.

Yes, we have (almost?) all the rust packages as public.

I tried to build i3status-rust with the 0.12 versions but ran into build
issues so I left it as you have it.  That issue specifically I don't
remember seeing, but I haven't played around with it as much as I could
have.

I would generally do it as two separate commits, even though each
depends on the other.  Doing both in one commit is technically more
correct.

> 4. When to #:skip-build?

I generally do it when a package actually doesn't build (like if it only
builds on macOS or on Windows) or if we can't get all the dependencies
packaged, like rust-clap-derive-4 (I think) which has a dependency which
wants a newer version of nushell.  Most of the time I leave a comment
about cutting the dependency chain.  There was a period where
intermediate crates which were imported defaulted to '#:skip-build? #t'
but it made it harder to check that the inputs were correct.

> 5. Why is a rust package name defined when inheriting the same name?

We use the name field as part of the source file-name, and if we leave
it as inherited then the name field shows up as undeclared.

These ones I left for now in case another package later needs them.
