non-allocating recv_into! (feature request)?

[tt1234567]

Hello, I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but would it be possible to provide a recv_into! method for reading from a UDP socket directly into an existing buffer? I'm reading a stream of data via UDP and using recv allocates so much that the garbage collector activity causes packets to be lost. I think Python has something like this.

I did try asking on Discourse some time ago but didn't get very far see here

This would be useful for me as well!
