rust - Constraints on associated trait types

Question

Here's a (somewhat contrived) example to illustrate what I would like to do

pub trait Node: Eq + Hash {
    type Edge: Edge;
    fn get_in_edges(&self)  -> Vec<&Self::Edge>;
    fn get_out_edges(&self) -> Vec<&Self::Edge>;
}

pub trait Edge {
    type Node: Node;
    fn get_src(&self) -> &Self::Node;
    fn get_dst(&self) -> &Self::Node;
}

pub trait Graph {
    type Node: Node;
    type Edge: Edge;
    fn get_nodes(&self) -> Vec<Self::Node>;
}

pub fn dfs<G: Graph>(root: &G::Node) {
    let mut stack = VecDeque::new();
    let mut visited = HashSet::new();

    stack.push_front(root);
    while let Some(n) = stack.pop_front() {
        if visited.contains(n) {
            continue
        }
        visited.insert(n);
        for e in n.get_out_edges() {
            stack.push_front(e.get_dst());
        }
    }
}

Is there a way to express in the Graph trait that Graph::Node must be the same type as Graph::Edge::Node and that Graph::Edge must be the same type as Graph::Node::Edge?

I remember reading something about a feature (not implemented at the time) that would allow richer constraints for this sort of thing, but I don't remember its name and cannot find it.

In Graph's definition, you can constrain each associated type's associated type (!) to be equal to the corresponding associated type in Graph.

pub trait Graph {
    type Node: Node<Edge = Self::Edge>;
    type Edge: Edge<Node = Self::Node>;
    fn get_nodes(&self) -> Vec<Self::Node>;
}
