Would a better solution here be to move the crate fetcher into
lib/bb/fetch2/ in bitbake?

I've been wondering about this too.

Does anyone remember how the fetcher lines up against the general fetcher
requirements we have and is there a list of anything that remained to be done
before it could be added to bitbake?

If I remember correctly, it just needed some test cases writing. The crate fetcher is a subclass of the wget fetcher with changes to how urldata is set up and how unpack is handled, so it should integrate well into bitbake.

Thanks,
