C++x? Maybe all classes will inherit from a base class now?
I think one of the biggest shortcomings of C++ was the oversight of making all classes inherit off of a single base class. That would solve so many hidden complexities.
Also, my computer is fast enough for 2 pass compilation, so let's drop .h files. I shouldn't have to define my interface in two separate files.
Oh and give me native smart pointers that take care of garbage collection.
Lastly, add a GUI layer so I don't have to recode all the GUI code based on proprietary libraries for every target platform. In fact, include OpenGL in that layer for good measure.
Oh and a unified hardware library so I can access USB and FireWire devices on different platforms without modifying my code.
