I have no strong opinions, but I personally feel it is a bit odd that a timer that is never resolved is the default.

The three options I see are:

  • Leave the Timer without a Default impl.
  • Have the default impl never fire.
  • Have the default impl fire immediately.

Now that I think about it, the third options seems to be the least footgun-like.

Actually, I'm starting to think that the first option is better. There aren't many instances where the Default impl of a timer is called anyhow (unless you're storing them in a TinyVec), and the ones where they would be feel unavoidably like a footgun. I'll just not have a Default impl; we can discuss it later if we need to.

Yeah, it seems better to postpone the Default implementation until someone actually asks for it.
