this thing where methods can take `self: Box<Self>`: what other types can be used here as wrappers around the Self type? my guess would be anything that implements Deref<Target=Self> ?

Yup, when people talk about how box is only special in one case anymore, this is what they're referring to. There's talk of maybe adding a DerefMove trait for this

Oh sorry I should have read the whole thread. There's an unstable feature for this, `arbitrary_self_types` which lets you do `self: Rc<Self>`, etc.
