GCC outputting html (or XML:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19165#c10 and later comments)
seems much more unlikely than someone deciding to implement at least one of my
points above. Anyone that needs such HTML output will already use Clang, which
had HTML output 6 years ago) instead of spending a few years trying to
implement it in GCC.
