As you seem to be very confused about what my questions aim at, I have
no interest in the ObjC++ language design.  However, I would like to
understand how the C++ front-end relates to your ObjC++ front-end and
why you seem to believe that the way you're modifying the C++
front-end is the way it ought to be without people having to say
anything.

If having objcp/ in place helps you offer meaningful explanation of
why you're modifying C++ front-end the way you do, I'm for it.  You'll
however need the RM approval.
