rust - How can I get impl Trait to use the appropriate lifetime for a mutable reference to a value with another lifetime in it?

I have a struct with a lifetime:

struct HasLifetime<'a>( /* ... */ );

There is there is an implementation of the trait Foo:

impl<'a, 'b: 'a> Foo for &'a mut HasLifetime<'b> { }

I want to implement the following function:

fn bar_to_foo<'a, 'b: 'a>(bar: &'a mut Lifetime<'b>) -> impl Foo {
    bar
}

This won't compile because the returned impl is only valid for 'a. However, specifying impl Foo + 'a results in:

error[E0909]: hidden type for `impl Trait` captures lifetime that does not appear in bounds
 --> src/main.rs:7:60
  |
7 | fn bar_to_foo<'a, 'b: 'a>(bar: &'a mut HasLifetime<'b>) -> impl Trait + 'a {
  |                                                            ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  |
note: hidden type `&'a mut HasLifetime<'b>` captures the lifetime 'b as defined on the function body at 7:1
 --> src/main.rs:7:1
  |
7 | fn bar_to_foo<'a, 'b: 'a>(bar: &'a mut HasLifetime<'b>) -> impl Trait + 'a {
  | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The seemingly equivalent function with a boxed trait object compiles:

fn bar_to_foo<'a, 'b: 'a>(bar: &'a mut Lifetime<'b>) -> Box<Foo + 'a> {
    Box::new(bar)
}

How can I define bar_to_foo with impl Trait?

You need to indicate that the returned value is built upon multiple lifetimes. However, you can't use multiple lifetime bounds with impl Trait, and attempting to do so doesn't have a useful error message.

There's a trick you can use that involves creating a dummy trait that has a lifetime parameter:

trait Captures<'a> {}
impl<'a, T: ?Sized> Captures<'a> for T {}

fn bar_to_foo<'a, 'b: 'a>(bar: &'a mut HasLifetime<'b>) -> impl Trait + Captures<'b> + 'a {
    bar
}

Thankfully, this only occurs when the "hidden" lifetime is invariant, which occurs because the reference is mutable.
