Ok, I can do that if no one else does it first.
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?
