Description
You write in your readme that rust-bindgen is used to call
C (and some C++) libraries
It would be nice if you would clarify if that means that you intend to provide full C++ support one day, or if that means that rust-bindgen is supposed to be used for C and C++ libraries that are more C-like and not modern C++.

Research direction
Review the README passage describing rust-bindgen support for C and some C++ libraries. Clarify whether full C++ support is intended or whether the tool targets C-like C++ libraries, then verify that the revised wording answers the question without overstating support.
