I think this is a good plan, and the harmony with the Google style guide

Does this mean that every c++ *must* be marked with override, or is that
still optional? Do we intend to make that a requirement in the future?
I think there's a typo of some sort in the question, but if you meant
"every overriding function must be marked with override", then yes, that
is the change I'm proposing, but the good news is that you can now run
clang-tidy on the entire tree and get it to rewrite the source code to
make sure that the override keywords are present where they are needed,
and we can do that as often as we would like. IOW, this can be done
without requiring every C++ programmer to remember to do it always.
