Code-wise, it's not too painful [1], the problem is that you need to enable more features for syn. By default, syn doesn't compile in support for parsing arbitrary types / expressions, which does increase the time / space needed. Since syn is a pretty fundamental crate, I've a feeling that Serde probably doesn't want to turn on this feature for minimal gain, but that's pure speculation on my part.
