No diagnostic on invalid member initialization since MSVC 14.12
The following code compiles fine with VS 2017 Update 5 and 6 Preview 2. It doesn't compile with Update 4 and clang. /std:c++14/17/latest and /permissive- make no difference.
struct A {
A(int, int) {}
A() = delete; // makes no difference
};
struct B {
A a1{1, 1, 1};
A a2{};
A a3{1};
A a4{nullptr};
A a5{""};
A a6{0.0};
};

Hi Leo, why is this bug taking so long to be fixed? I use {} initialization everywhere, so I get caught by this bug almost every single day...
Same problem when A is a base class of B:
struct B : A {
B() : A{ 1, 2, 3 } {} // Why no Error ?!?
};
