In it's current form, there has been zero false-positives. All the complaints
are because it is finding an **actual** issues in the people's code, and people
don't feel like fixing the code because in some other case (data model) the
issue would not be present.

Of course, everyone is welcomed to please do prove me wrong,
and report some actual false-positives that are not data-model-dependant.

What @aaron.ballman said in the mail. No one ever will enable it then.
And since it is not actually broken in the first place, i'm a *bit* hesitant to do that.

Though i totally understand the desire to not have bogus warnings,
and so far the clang/clang-analyzer/clang-tidy is the best at that :)
