`Box::new` recommended in struct initialization identifier position

[ginnyTheCat]

Code

struct X {
    a: Box<u32>,
}

fn main() {
    let a = 8;
    let x = X { a };
}

Current output

Rationale and extra context

I'm not quite sure whether this is desired this way but following the recommendation and putting X { Box::new(a) } in the code doesn't suggest adding the a, that's why I thought reporting this may be useful.
