Sounds good to me. > The other changes deal with designated initializers and flexible array > members.

I think we should add these flags to CXXFLAGS for MSVC by default, similar to how we add -std=gnu++11/-std=c++11 for other compilers. We can then document on the C++ extension docs page, that MSVC compilers require C++20 support.
