This seems similar to the compiler warning situation.
Usually at least, I don't think we should automatically modify the
code in line with how the compiler reads the code just to silence
the warning. Instead the warning is there to indicate that a
programmer needs to check the code.
These cases bear no similarity whatsoever. I can't think of any
compiler warnings that can be automatically fixed without changing
the meaning of the program.
The warning that you are proposing to fix here is
-Woverloaded-virtual.
No. My proposal is completely unrelated to function overloading.
Perhaps you're thinking of clang's -Winconsistent-missing-override?
This proposal obviously fixes that warning (as a mere side effect), but
that warning wouldn't catch everything that this proposal covers.
