The spec claims that "all non-static non-private non-template

virtual.
But from what I recall, the plan is to leave package as non-virtual.
So, is
that indeed the case and the spec needs to be fixed, or is package
going to be
made virtual at some point?

Is anyone even using "package"? I've basically never used it.
I use it. Primarily for utility declarations shared among modules, but
not intended for the outside world. For example, DerelictGL's extension
loader. Incidentally, before reading this I just finished refactoring
another project to use some package-protected stuff. But I've never had
a need (yet) to override anything with package protection outside of the
same module.
I see, I see. I guess it's more used in Java because it's the default.
