I had no plans on supporting C++ but we'll see what happens. I don't 
know when. I have much of the implementation already done but that was 
as a modification to Clang, not as a separate tool. I'm trying to 
reimplement the code as a separate tool in D using the Clang C bindings. 
So far it's not working out that well, there's not much documentation 
available.
