The way Clang handles this is to mostly go back to the original source code (through the source manager and source location information) to grab what the user actually wrote. The pretty printing functionality loses information like whether something was expanded from a macro, etc and so, if the goal is to show what the user wrote, it's likely to be a really big uphill battle to get that through the pretty printer. (The other issue is that we don't actively maintain the pretty printer, so it's quite frequently the case that newer language constructs are not well-supported by the pretty printer unless it just so happens to work by default.)
