There already is one: http://cplusplus.github.io/LWG/lwg-active.html#2383
-- my preferred fix for that is to simply make it "no diagnostic required",
so that we can continue to diagnose this and other implementations can do
something worse =) [... and then, eventually, to improve the core language
such that this doesn't require an extension, and remove the "no diagnostic
required" again.]
