I (only speaking for myself) have no goals in that area, and anyway
nothing to decide here.
Perhaps I'm wrong on that, but at the moment my impression is that much
of what you want is based on wrong assumptions, like that gcc in it's
default gnu89 mode would reject non-C89 code, or that all C++03
compilers would support the same subset of the C++03 standard.
And even if I'd be wrong on that, my impression is that what you have
are quite unusual use cases.
I'm completely open to change my opinion based on arguments that
convince me that I missed some problem so far, but you seem to run
away instead of properly explaining your problem.
