In Rust, you can't implicitly omit fields when instantiating a struct, so it would have to be a bit more verbose, explicitly using Rust's analog to the spread syntax.

It would have to look something like:

  f({ hours: 2, seconds: 53, ..Default::default() })

The defaults could come from some value / function with a name shorter than Default::default(), but it would be less clear.
