Sorry to be re-treading the FINAL/OVERRIDE stuff, but...

Is it just me, or is it a code smell to have both "virtual" and
"final"/"override" on a decl?

In particular, AIUI:
"virtual" says: "some subclass might override this method"
"final" says: "no subclass will override this method"

so having both seems contradictory.

If sprintf_dom_walker is providing a implementation of a vfunc of
dom_walker, then presumably this should just lose the "virtual" on the
subclass, it's presumably already got the "virtual" it needs in the
base class.
