For ASCII character literals, I can sort of guess at why people might want to do this, but for things like wide character literals, or character literals relying on the current code page, etc, I'm less convinced.

Ordinary character literals are promoted as well, aren't they? `'a'` has type `char`, and that should promote up to `int`. My point was that you are silencing the warning on any character literal, not just ordinary character literals. However, I see now that `-Wchar-subscript` is very serious about `char`, rather than any character type, so I guess you don't need to distinguish between character literal kinds because the type system already deals with that for you.

LGTM!
