Research direction

Start by reviewing the earlier Rust-wrapper issue #127 and the linked external polyscope-rs project. The issue asks for maintainer feedback on feature completeness and names before publishing to crates.io, but it identifies no repository files, tests, or concrete implementation task; completion would require a maintainer decision.

Description

Hi there,

There was an issue about rust wrapper several years ago:
https://github.com/nmwsharp/polyscope/issues/127

But it seems paused/stopped since 0.2.1 and many features are not complete.

As a part of my own experiment for testing how far AI-driven can go and if it can manage mid-scale software development, I did a rust-native version of polyscope here over the past 2 weeks.
https://github.com/xarthurx/polyscope-rs

I would say it is now in a relative feature-complete status and will need some test from the Rust community.
But before publishing it to the crates.io ecosystem, are you fine with the names? or do you prefer it to be different from polyscope?

Thanks.
Feedback and comments are welcome.
