> What can be done to move this change along?

I feel there has to be a fundamental acceptance that it is ok for clang-format 
to alter code (something it already does with sorting of includes, namespace 
comments).

There were fairly strong opinions that clang-format isn't the best tool to do 
this (which actually I don't agree with, I think it is, as long as those 
capabilities are off by default and there is an acceptance they won't be 
perfect especially in the presence of macros due to lack of AST)

My only thought about building another tool would be if it was a drop in 
replacement for clang-format (tooling allows setting of a path), but it would 
need to inherit all of clang-format.

but to me, this just feels like extra grunt work just to work around why some 
community don't like it.

I guess a consensus is hard to come by, but I don't really know who owns the 
decision around the future direction of clang-format.
