Is it really absolutely necessary to have this in the top level
directory of the source tree?

Rich.

Turns out it isn't. It didn't work when I tried it the first time, and I thought that this was the reason why. But it turns out the real reason was because you had been generating your Cargo.toml file with autotools. That's no longer the case, after my last patch. So you don't need the workspace Cargo.toml file after all.
