While rustc supports reading from STDIN if the fake path - (dash) is provided (a CLI convention), rustdoc does not.
This is definitely not something I need, it's merely an inconsistency between rustc and rustdoc I've noticed and that I'm recording here.
rustc Example
printf 'pub struct F;' | rustc - --crate-type=lib
Crate name: rust_out; virtual file path: <anon>.
Reproducer
printf 'pub struct F;' | rustdoc -
Currently fails with:
error: couldn't read -: No such file or directory (os error 2)
