Panics should be explicit, not implicit.

unwrap() should effectively work as a Result<> where the user must manually invoke a panic in the failure branch. Make special syntax if a match and panic is too much boilerplate.

This is like an implicit null pointer exception that cannot be statically guarded against.

I want a way to statically block any crates doing this from my dependency chain.

unwrap is explicit.

Not sure what you're saying with the "work as a Result<>" part...unwrap is a method on Result. I think you're just saying the unwrap/expect methods should be eliminated?
