We typically don't add new, default-off warnings because experience has shown 
that users don't enable them. The coding guidelines argument is somewhat 
persuasive, but I wonder whether this is better handled through clang-tidy 
checks rather than the compiler itself -- that's where we put other diagnostics 
that may not be suitable for the compiler. Have you thought about surfacing 
this functionality that way?
