C++ compilers know when a structure is POD (plain old data) and could relax initialization order rules for them. I doubt they will.

  And suddenly, after a small struct field change that invalidates POD rules, the code stops compiling, for example.

    Sure, although making small edits thay break compilation isn’t all that unusual in C++. Eg, deleted constructors in added members, etc.
