Arguments from compatibility with GCC are relatively easy to make (though I still have more hesitance for these flags since there's not wide-scale adoption, and I think there's still room to shape the world we want to see and limit the width of the interface/variations we end up having to support long term) & might side-step some of the discussions here.

I'm still curious what about the details of other compilers - I think from the sounds of it, @iains suggested GCC doesn't support this yet so we'll need to pick/name the flag ourselves & he's happy to implement whatever we pick? I guess Microsoft's flag naming is sufficiently differently styled as to offer no useful inspiration? Though wouldn't hurt to know what they name it.

Any other examples you had in mind, Ben?
