Description
Feature Request
It would be nice if aggregate initialization would support parameter hints, i.e. it should show the member names of the aggregate type that are being initialized:
Note how no hints are shown for the aggregate c{1, 2} line - would be nice to see something like aggregate{int a, int b} there.
