That's not strictly true; the variable can be accessed in unevaluated operands, and in code doing so, a `-Wshadow` warning might (theoretically) be useful:
void f(SomeComplexType val) {
struct A {
decltype(val) &ref;
void g(int val) {
decltype(val) *p = &ref;
}
} a = {val};
}
That said, suppressing the warning seems like a good thing in the common case. We've discussed the idea of deferring some `-Wshadow` warnings until we see a use; if someone cares about this case, we could consider warning only if the shadowed variable is actually used in an unevaluated operand.
