Re: Inclusion in an official release of a new throw-like qualifier

Yes. But that's not a reason to add a slightly different non-standard feature that would require people already using standard exception specifications to rewrite everything. That's just a non-starter.


You asked how likely your proposed extension is to be included in an official GCC release. My answer is, very unlikely. However, a flag to perform static checking of standard exception specifications and warn about violations is very likely to be included.
