I'm torn on it, it seems possibly useful for some things (maybe sqlite databases?), but having `describe -d` not include the custom type name anywhere felt weird. Another option would be to add another method to `CustomValue` for info to be displayed in `describe`, so that it can be more type-specific? # User-Facing Changes Everything above has implications for printing and `describe` on custom values # Tests + Formatting - 🟢 `toolkit fmt` - 🟢 `toolkit clippy` - 🟢 `toolkit test` - 🟢 `toolkit test stdlib` |

Nushell core libraries and plugins
These sub-crates form both the foundation for Nu and a set of plugins which extend Nu with additional functionality.
Foundational libraries are split into two kinds of crates:
- Core crates - those crates that work together to build the Nushell language engine
- Support crates - a set of crates that support the engine with additional features like JSON support, ANSI support, and more.
Plugins are likewise also split into two types:
- Core plugins - plugins that provide part of the default experience of Nu, including access to the system properties, processes, and web-connectivity features.
- Extra plugins - these plugins run a wide range of different capabilities like working with different file types, charting, viewing binary data, and more.
