> Is it conceivable that we might implement it at some point in the future? There are situations where this function could be useful. In that case I would remove the function from the public API, but keep the vtable entry so the function can be added in without breaking ABI compatibility. Or is that not a concern now that we explicitly fill in vtable entries?
Either way. 5.2 will not be ABI compatible with 5.0 anyway so that
doesn't matter.
