This attribute is specified by the C++ core guidelines, not by clang, and presumably we want code using this attribute to be portable across implementations of the C++ code guidelines. I'd suggest asking the editors of the core guidelines what attribute namespace they'd like used, and using that here rather than using `clang`.


I believe this attribute should be used to silence diagnostics for more than just the C++ Core Guidelines, so I don't think it makes sense to let them dictate what attribute namespace should be used. However, I would appreciate if they didn't suggest implementers stomp all over the attribute namespace used by standards-based attributes, either.
