    That can be fixed (for some values of "fixed") by adding compiler
    support for completion to GCC. The fact that LLVM has it already, and
    that some Emacs modes could be written to support it, does not
    preclude extending GCC or creating packages to interact with it (or
    extending the LLVM-related ones to support both).

The point is to give people a strong motivation to implement the
necessary support with GCC.  What you have in mind would give people
no motivation to do that, so it would not help GCC.  It is more
of an excuse for giving up than a resolve to resist.
