I wonder if it's worth having a section on shadowing? It is interesting to point out that Rust typically allows shadowing, and patterns are just a special case.
It's ALSO interesting (perhaps) to point out that you cannot shadow a constant or enum variant name.

We talk about it in the variable bindings section, but this is a question that people ask about with patterns specifically, so I felt it was worth re-calling it out.
