That doesn't always equate to "add semantic-mode support", and in many cases won't be optimal. I don't have anything against supporting Semantic more widely, but we should understand that it isn't something all users want. And the "Semantic is too slow for C++" complaint (e.g. compared to Clang-based background process solutions) is unlikely to go away.
